THE HOBBIT'S TALE
The Hobbit's Tale
Picture from "Tolkien"

The strangest sight to meet the eyes
Of hobbit, dwarf, or elf
Was a maggot of a man,
With a ring upon his hand,
Who was talking to himself.

He lost the ring upon the ground;
A hobbit found it there,
And when he put it on, he suddenly was gone,
Like he’d vanished in thin air.

Tolkien hobbit


He ran away invisibly and found the way outside,
And he kept the ring, hanging on a string
’Til he talked to his wizard guide.

From him he learned the story
Of a power old and fell,
Whose evil starts to twist the very hearts
Of the ones beneath its spell.

In ancient times there lived a man,
Not far from the river’s shore.
He sailed the bend with a trusted friend
No man could ever love more.

Sail

But his friend retrieved a ring one day
From deep in the river bed,
And his lust to hold that magic band of gold
Made him leave his best friend dead.

His treasure won, he hid himself
In caves beneath the ground,
Where he lived for years as his guilt and fears
Made his lonely mind unsound.

’Til a hobbit came to his cave one day
And stole his ring so fine;
And clear to the halls of the Dark Lord’s thralls
You could hear his greedy whine!
