Bilbo once
tape-measured my sanity
but never mentioned that I
was a few inches short
I wish I had known
for I would never have walked into Mordor
without my
own personal Sam
& at the end of the day
it is not The One Ring
that rules us all –
but love, in all its facets.

Love to read Lord of the Rings references in anything… but in poetry it just seems even more appropriate.

Thank you for checking it out! Yes… Lord of the Rings is a MUST – hope Tolkien looks the other way while I use his wonderful story to get my point across… 😉
