he carried his fathers legacy quite admirably over the years right thru to the end. He even bade farewell with Beren andLuthien but still managed one more with the fall of Gondolin. Great work, ol chap. Rip

Ditto what you said Fishcane.
Ditto what you said Fishcane... I picked up Fall of Gondolin while passing thru the airport a few weeks ago, I haven't had a chance to delve into it yet.
Cant wait for the new Middle Earth series from Amazon and they haven't even begun filming yet! According to reports (link below) it wont be a rehash of LOTR but a prequel which sounds really interesting!

I’ll add some symmetry and share a Tolkien inspired lyric from someone else who passed recently....
Sunlight dances through the leaves
Soft winds stir the sighing trees
Lying in the warm grass
Feel the sun upon your face
Elfin songs and endless nights
Sweet wine and soft relaxing lights
Time will never touch you
Here in this enchanted place
You feel there's something calling you
You're wanting to return
To where the misty mountains rise and friendly fires burn
A place you can escape the world
Where the dark Lord cannot go
Peace of mind and sanctuary by loud water's flow
I've traveled now for many miles
It feels so good to see the smiles of
Friends who never left your mind
When you were far away
From the golden light of coming dawn
Till the twilight where the sun is gone
We treasure ev'ry season
And ev'ry passing day
We feel the coming of a new day
Darkness gives way to light a new way
Stop here for a while until the world,
The world calls you away
Yet you know I've had the feeling
Standing with my senses reeling
This is the place to grow old till
I reach my final day
