by Galatyn Renner

Take the midnight watch

Dream of home and peace

Never sleep

Green and brown

The colors of my life

Though surrounded by stone

They are in my heart

Alone

The only Elf

Even in Lothlorien

Not my home

And the bow

Given me by Galadriel

The arrows that never miss

Whether by her magic or my skill

I believe it is magic

Gimli seems at home

The mountain to Dwarves

The forest to Elves

And the sea to me

If I ever find it.
