I am in grade nine;
I have not written haikus
since three years ago
Alas! what follows
may be truly laughable
and yet I will write:

On a loved one's grave
Green'ry is shadowed by white
Symbelmÿne fair.

Dark the world becomes
The voices of the Ainur
Draw her now closer
Land of bliss and peace
Valinor the fair calls her
She is passing now.

The greatest of kings
bent to the will of Sauron
Accursed Nazgul.

Choc'late in Arda?
Nay, there was no such thing, yet
Lembas was better [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

{By the way, poets,
your wing'd words are well-written
I applaud your works)
