Gandalfs Song of Lorien

...re ever, long and bright.
Galadriel! Galadriel!
Clear is the water of your well;
White is the stars in your white hand;
Unmarred, unstained is leaf and land
In Dwimordene, in Lorien
More fair than thoughts of Mortal Men....Read more of this...

Joy

...heart is lighter than a feather.

I rise rejoicing in my life; 
I live with love of God and neighbour; 
My days flow on unmarred by strife, 
And sweetened by my pleasant labour.

O youth! O spring! O happy days, 
Ye are so passing sweet, and tender, 
And while the fleeting season stays, 
I revel care-free, in its splendour....Read more of this...

Lines Inscribed on The Wall of a Dungeon in The Southern P of I

...or I know it well,
Methinks I see her even now;
No sigh disturbs her bosom's swell,
No shade o'ercasts her angel brow.

My friend has gone away from me, 
But leaving a sweet legacy....Read more of this...

The Cow

...she, good mother, gives and gives in heaps, 
 And never moves. Anon there creeps 
 A vague soft shiver o'er the hide unmarred, 
 As sharp they pull, she seems of stone most hard. 
 Dreamy of large eye, seeks she no release, 
 And shrinks not while there's one still to appease. 
 Thus Nature—refuge 'gainst the slings of fate! 
 Mother of all, indulgent as she's great! 
 Lets us, the hungered of each age and rank, 
 Shadow and milk seek in the eternal flank; 
 Mystic...Read more of this...
