Can't Post

I have given hints. Your answers contain two consecutive words that rhyme.
Example: The Shire guard tripped and fell. (Ans.) A Bounder flounder.
If you wish to play switch NOW to ‘threaded viewing’ in order not to see other’s answers.
Yes you can! Yes you can figure these out! Here we go! 
1. A very old Dwarf
2. A weeping Dwarf
3. The postman delivered a broken sword
4. A sterile one-handed man
5. An Orc with a gimpy leg
6. A regal finger ornament
7. Stupid yrch
8. A Rodent Dwarf
9. The child Sindar took a photo of himself
10. Improper use of the Onodrim language
11. A breed of Hobbit in pain
12. Griffo has a cold
13. Andwise is on drugs
14. A white whale Hornblower
15. A loquacious Lumpkin
Boromir looked in surprise at Bilbo, but the laughter died on his lips when he saw that all the others regarded the old hobbit with grave respect. Only Glóin smiled, but his smile came from old memories.

Or it’s a morning to be good on, or it’s a good morning whether you want it or not, or . . . oh well, ya know.
Okay, some Invisible Extra Credit for being first. 
And some ‘humor’ extra credit for #1
A tiny credit for #11 Poor Stoor – Good but slightly off the Mark (Mark, get it?).
Thanks a bunch for playing.

Eru Ilúvatar lived in a timeless state,
Then he created the Ainur to sing his magnum opus. Wait….
The one who had most power,
Melkor, sang his section sour,
Ilúvatar got rather dour,
He sang Eä! (he let the Ainur in).
Melkor, in jealousy, he sought to mar the symphony
That all started with the first word. (BANG!)

I have to give you 100%. . .
Your #2 is technically correct (Well, more than technically I spose). I have a different answer. But credit where credit is due!
Makes me wonder on the pronunciation of Khazâd? Although I've always pronounced it to rhyme with "sad" but this may be incorrect? Does the circumflex indicate a long final "a"? 
And # 11 also has a slightly different (and some better (I think) answer).
Thanks for playing. Cheers

It was fun, your games are always a challenge. This one was no exception.
I almost didn't get Barren Beren because in my regional pronunciation Barren a sounds the a in apple or arrow, while my Beren sounds more like "errand".
looking forward to seeing the answers you had in mind. Happy Independence Day weekend!
