Before the First Lights of Dawn

Below the trees
Draped in red
And orange
And yellow
Beyond the mountain
Capped in bright snow
Beneath the glowing moon
And glitter stars
There is a man
Limping slowly home
His battle over
War is finished
All he wants now
Is the welcoming arms
Of his wife
And the glow of joy
On his daughters face
He'll make it home
Before the first lights of dawn

Take this poem, and I'll send you to live in Orthanc with Saruman and Grima Wormtongue and the FIGHTING URUK-HAI!  Lot's of men, all living together....You figure out the rest.
