As a child I read a magic tale, Of Gandalf, Thorin and Bard of Dale, Of dungeon deep and hollow hall, And a throne beneath a mountain tall. The book told me of dwarves and gold, Of dragons, maps and realms of old, Of riddles told deep in the dark And a bowman hitting his monstrous mark. It was a hobbit’s tale of hidden doors, Of spiders, buttons and goblin wars, Of hungry trolls by the fireside, An Elven king and a barrel ride. And in my mind I did see A world in which I longed to be: Where runes appeared in clear moonlight And eagles saved you from your plight. Where a man could change into a bear And a burglar sneak into a dragon’s lair, Where birds could speak and elves did dwell In Elrond’s magic Rivendell. As I turned the pages of the book I followed every step the hobbit took. I saw him find a ring of gold And flee from Gollum’s fearsome hold. And though I didn’t know it then, I’d go back into that world again In other books, read late at night In the pale circle of my bedside light. Now a part of me is always there In the world that Tolkien chose to share And I know how much it can be worth To have found the door to Middle Earth.
