Hi, guys. Just thought of sharing a poem I wrote for Galadriel based on the works of Portuguese medieval poet Gil Vicente...
I'm not a native English speaker, so excuse my language mistakes...
Its more like a song than a read-only poem.

Lady of The Golden Woods

Beautiful is the Lady, golden is her sight
How sweet is the Lady, her face is fair and bright

Tell me, oh magic sailor
Who lives in the great ship
If your ship, or the rosy seas, or the starful night
Is so bright

Tell me, oh glorious knight
Who wears a shiny armour
If your armour, or your horse, or the bloodiest fight
Is so bright

Tell me, oh dwarves and elves
Who dwell in mountains and forests
If the mountains, or the forests, or the eagles flying high
Are so bright

Tell me, oh peaceful halflings
Whose home is in a distant land
If your land, or the Water, or the silver moonlight
Is so bright

Tell me, oh Dark Lord in a dark tower
In the Eastern land where shadows lie
If your shadows, or your Ring, or all your might
Is so bright

That's it. Let me know what you think.

Peace!
