Cinquains for Aragorn


6 Cinquains for Aragorn

Strider
Ever watchful
In shadow and in light,
Maligned by many, yet your gold
Glitters

Broken,
The gathered shards
Cleansed of their past defeat;
By fire you and they shall be
Reforged.

Elfstone,
Green and silver,
Through your hands and your will,
There shall be for lands and people
Healing.

Wingfoot
Rohan named you;
For indeed you cross leagues
As if sped by the winds above,
Swiftly.

Estel,
What hope you give:
The line is not broken,
For Isildur's heir will return
The King.

Long life,
You are blessed with,
To live beyond Man's span -
What heart's betrayal: it is not
Enough.


-Primula

Warrior
Strong, courageous
Destroying, unyielding, tending
gentle, perceptive
Healer
- Frodowannabe

Attained:
Awaited throne;
Surpassing your kinsmen,
Such a great leap for long-legged
Strider.
- Primula

Leader
To all who see
His strength and deep wisdom
Showing justice with true mercy
Their king
 - Frodowannabe

Strider
Long-legged man
Loyalty un-faltered
Through time has protected shire folk
Unknown
- Viggolove
