Wicked Awesome Poem Wednesday

One Ring

Three rings for the Elven-kings under the sky,
Seven for the Dwarf-lords in their halls of stone,
Nine for Mortal Men doomed to die,
One for the Dark Lord on his dark throne
In the Land of Mordor where the Shadows lie.
One Ring to rule them all, One Ring to find them,
One Ring to bring them all and in the darkness bind them
In the Land of Mordor where the Shadows lie.

-J.R.R. Tolkien

First read it when I was 11. Still an awesome book!

I read him and Steven King's "The Stand" every year ... love 'em!

The Stand is a great novel. The made-for-TV movie did not do it justice.

I've got the unabridged version, makes a lot more sense than the original.
