Here's a poem I wrote last semester for my english class. It is entitled "Of Telperion and Laurelin"

Thins golden rays flood o'er this land,
And purest light doth fill mine hand.
Oh golden tree of Valinor,
Thy light shines out to farthest shore.

And what is said of Laurelin?
Her silver light outshineth tin.
Thy soft and silent gentle hue,
Doth shine against the sky so blue.

Telperion and Laurelin,
In Valinor thy light begin.
It shineth pure and piercingly.
It floweth forth quite readily.

O golden tree of Valinor!
O silver tree of farthest shore!
Shine forth 'gainst midnight's darkest cloth,
Assail the eyes of vile Morgoth.

Oh soft white light of Laurelin,
Although the darkness 'gainst thee win.
Do not thy white light darkness trade!
Forsake the darkness bid thee fade.

And golden beam of Telperion,
Ungoliant's venom 'gainst thee won.
Do not fade O glorious tree!
Take not from Valar all thy glee.

O glorious trees of Valinor,
Although the darkness 'gainst thee soar.
Thou shalt live on in memory,
Despite thy death in tradgedy.
