There was a forest Lorien
Clothed in morning glory mist
Its byways were by beauty kissed
A timeless wonder to behold
Was Lorien in days of old
Lothlorien, Lothlorien
We still your beauty sing
There never was a land more fair
Than Lorien in spring.
Throughout the age homage was paid
Although The Wood began to fade
And stories even now are told
Of when its leaves all turned to gold
For vibrant was its autumn hue
And every honor was its due
Lothlorien, Lothlorien
We still your beauty sing
There never was a land more fair
Than Lorien in spring.
The Golden Wood then was its name
A glory still despite the change
But now her beauty lies in tales
Who's picture painting words are pale
When held up to the Golden Light
Of Lorien before the Night.
Lothlorien, Lothlorien
We still your beauty sing
There never was a land more fair
Than Lorien in spring.

you've really captured the spirit of lothlorien here. I've read loads of poems with the same theme but they don't even come close to the quality of this one.

This is beautiful. It truly paints the beautiful picture of Lothlorien and its fading away. I could sing it as I read it.

Did you know, this is one of the first poems I read in the RR when I first joined TORC? Along with your Entwives one, and the one about love, and a couple others not by you, they were my first impression of TORC. And guess what? I stuck around
Now, I'm not surprised that my dear Guild Master wrote them, though I had no clue at the time
