More Haikus!

These things are like popcorn!

 MERRY (Serious)
He is as my father.
She stands so fair, facing death.
I must do something!

 BUTTERBUR (Humourous)
One more thing to do!
I'll send it off tomorrow,
or the day after...

 ARAGORN (Serious)
I dare, risking all,
choosing ancient destiny,
winning Realm and Queen!

 ELROND (Serious)
I now understand,
Thingol's unbearable sadness.
But how like Elros!

 GALADRIEL (Serious)
Uttermost West seems far.
Ruling here loses its sweetness.
Shall I pass the test?

 ROSIE COTTON (Serious)
I'll not give him up.
He'll keep his word, like always!
But I miss him so.

 GIMLI (Serious)
Give me orcish necks!
Good-boned stone beneath my feet!
Galadriel's hair...

 LEGOLAS (Serious)
And what else is there?
Fangorn's Forest must be seen!
Then, at last, the Sea.

 THORIN (Serious)
Hammer strikes anvil.
Smaug must pay for dwarvish deaths!
The anvil resounds.

 THRANDUIL (Serious)
Dwarves in my forest?
They must be up to something.
Erebor's not far...

 BOMBUR (Humourous)
I'm weary, starving.
Woodland king and feast in dreams!
Not another step!

 BEORN (Humourous)
Don't tell me! More Dwarves?
Never mind, finish begging!
What if this is true?

 THEODEN (Serious)
Despair and great age.
Stormcrow stirs both blood and limb.
Forth Eorlingas!

 EOWYN (Serious)
The foul Dwimmerlaik!
Deathless to the hand of man?
I am a woman!

 EOMER (Serious)
Slain king and sister!
Ride to ruin and world's end!
Eorl's sons cry, "Death!"

 SARUMAN (Serious)
Gnawing ends of plots.
Profit from some small mischief?
Halfling slavery.

 WORMTONGUE (Serious)
What have I become?
Humiliated. Depraved.
I hate the old man!

 SANDYMAN (Serious)
Times are changing!
Anyone with eyes can see that.
I want a piece, too!

 LOBELIA (Humourous)
Waited long enough!
No Bucklanders in Bag End!
Is it really mine?

 LOTHO (Serious)
My name's not Pimple!
Who's laughing now, I wonder!
You put Mother where?

 BOMBADIL (Humourous)
Ho! Tom Bombadil!
I can sing or wear what I like!
Tom Bombadillo!

 WITCH KING (Serious)
Hatred! O, Darkness!
There is nothing left but hate.
And I hate them all.

 SAURON (Serious)
Crush their rash power.
Where is the one with my Ring?
Orodruin! NO!
