Despite promising myself not to write anything new today... I went for it. And I got several variations of a mix of Farewell Sweet Earth and the musical lyrics, of which I have to pick just 2 stanzas. And the two stanzas I like best are mutually exclusive. Aaaaaahhh! I will look at this with fresh eyes tomorrow, clean it up, and post a draft.

The fledgling of an idea was that some lines in Farewell Sweet Earth fit perfectly well to Beren's tune. What I did not account for is that the imagery and symbolism in the lyrics is different from The Sil, and now I can't pick whether I want the stronger words of the lyrics or the direct quotes from the poem! (Oh, the misery of choice...)
