Mithrandir

Mithrandir, or Gandalf, is a fabulous character and a wonderful wizard.  The interesting thing about Gandalf is that his magic was never very visible throughout the books.  He was more sage and guide than anything and yet he posessed a power that was unmistakable.

Bilbo Baggins Remembered

Bilbo Baggins Remembered is another take on the famous hobbit that started it all.  His quest to recapture the treasure of the dwarves from the lonely mountain, his famous riddle duel with Golem and all his many adventures have inspired generations of fantasy lovers and will continue to entertain both old and young for many years to come.

Helm's Deep

Another fabulous poem about Helm's Deep.  As a Tolkein fan and avid reader of just about anything related to fantasy I can say that this is definitely worhwhile reading.  Naturally there are those who will disagree, but that is to be expected on any topic.

Beorn

Beorn is a wonderful character from The Hobbit, but is often overlooked.  As in many Welsh and Scandinavian based works he represents the nature caregiver or "Noah" character.  This poem does him great justice and makes a valient attempt to capture the essence of what he is all about.

Boromir

Boromir is one of those characters that you end up loving but often start out hating and somewhere your feelings are always just a bit mixed.  In the end he dies a hero but not completely.  Everyone will certainly have a different take on the matter, but this poem manages to explore some of the complexities surrounding him while leaving the reader thoughtful if nothing else.
