Sing all ye joyful, now sing all together!
The wind's in the tree-top, the wind's in the heather;
The stars are in blossom, the moon is in flower,
And bright are the windows of night in her tower.
Dance all ye joyful, now dance all together!
Soft is the grass, and let foot be like feather!
The river is silver, the shadows are fleeting;
Merry is May-time, and merry our meeting.
Sigh no more pine, till the wind of the morn!
Fall Moon! Dark be the land!
Hush! Hush! Oak, ash and thorn!
Hushed by all water, till dawn is at hand!

Oh, I love Tolkien more than I could ever say with my limited talent....oh how I adore his writings...I wish I could meet him. Maybe one day I will, in the spirit world, or perhaps I will meet him as he is in another life.

i believe this poem is about the hobbits and their gentle, funloving nature. this poem seems almost childlike in nature, much like hobbits. it is also the innocence of middle earth and what the evil of sauron is threatening to corrupt and destroy.
