Discussion A Lament for 🧝Fingon

[Elbereth Vala Varda]

For all discussion related to this poem. Apologies for forgetting to do one for my first poem (Elbereth has been up on Taniquetil too long apparently). Thank you all for the love!

This was a very lovely poem, and such a fitting lament for poor Fingon. So much grief followed his death. And yet there is some lightness in the rhythm of your words: they flow so easily. And there is triumph within the tragedy, for Fingon has left the darkness of Beleriand behind, and he died after having lived honourably, sparing no effort in fighting for the defence of his people and those he loved.
