Haldir Haiku



Haldir Haiku

a fair lady grieves
her brightest leaf is fallen
the golden woods fade


he does not idly fall
bright gold leaf of Lorien
proud to fight for men


sacred halls open
green waves lap Valinor's shores
a restful reward

- Orangeblossom Took


Doing Helm's ward round
Legolas with choc lembas
Jug of kingsfoil ale


Blond maids crowding bed
Fingering rich scarlet cloak
Sighing at brave deeds.

- Nicotiana Toby


Aloof and valiant
Scatters foe with sword and bow
Not afraid to die

- Lothithil


Haikus For Haldir

Elf from Golden Wood
Eyes bright and fierce in battle
Unyielding courage


Silent and watchful
Sentry of Galadriel
Unapproachable


Ah, his long blond hair
His look so stern and regal
Many women swoon


The Undying Lands
Lasting peace beyond the Seas
I shall find you there

- Old Toby


Keen eyes shine, Elf-horn blows
Dark blue led by crimson
Elves come to battle.


Doom falls on fair Elf
but Elbereth calls brave spirit
he is at peace.

- Frodo Baggins
