Poem

I wrote this around midnight some days ago; I picked some sentences from "The Fellowship of the Ring" by J.R.R.Tolkien, and made it into a poem. Here are the sentences I picked out:
"slender as a willow-wand"
"were touched by no frost"
"veins of silver running on the stone"
"stones crack in the frosty night"
"a shining star by day"
"elanor"
"on the land of Lorien there was no stain"
"an uneasy sleep"
"white glimmer of foam"
"elf-blade from its sheath"

And here's the poem I made out of it all:

Elanor

A shining star by day, a sunken light by night,
Veins of silver in her heart, no stain on her way.
A flower by name, a willow, a stone,
Too hard to prone, yet easy to maim.
Frost in her breath, glimmer in eyes,
Soft under lies, metal in sheath.
Elf, a kindred, peaceful a mind,
Uneasy and blind, always a hundred.
Absent from the earth, near to the stars,
Life holds no scars, when near to death.
Awake with no fears, a blade of worth,
A star in the North, drowning in tears.

Anyways, whether you like it or not doesn't really matter.
Sita
