Favourites:
I sang of leaves, of leaves of gold and leaves of gold they grew
Of wind I sang, a wind there came and in the branches blew
Beyond the sun, beyond the moon, a foam was on the sea
And by the strand of Ilmarin there grew a golden tree
[...]
Oh Lorien! The winter comes the bare and leafless day
The leaves asre falling in the stream, the river flows away
Oh Lorien! Too long I have dwelt apon this hither shore
and in the fading crown have twined the golden elanor.
But if of ships I now should sing what ship would come to me? What ship would pass me ever wide across so wide a sea?
Gee, I love that one...
and then there´s Gimli´s Song of Durin,
the long list of the Ents
and the ballade of the four winds.
But I love almost all of Tolkiens poems, simly cause they´re just poems and give a bit of "break" between the normal writing.
