Proper Poet - for Sam
Dec. 18th, 2009 01:13 pmA little piece for that interlude by the stone trolls, when Sam shows his hidden side.
Proper Poet
An artist’s eye,
And a poet’s heart,
A gardener’s caring for all that is living,
A steady hand
That knows what’s right,
With courage to see the night through to the day.
A longing for language, the beauty of words,
A thirst for all mystery and wonder.
To desire in his dreams places afar
But to hold to the earth
As he reaches the sky:
Samwise.
Proper poet.
