The visitors

Tony36

He walked into the tavern that stormy night

Dark green hooded cape

When he lifted the hood revealing elvish skin

Pointed ears, long dark hair

Soaking wet from head to toe

 

As he removed his cape

Revealing a sword at his side

A bow and some arrows upon his back

 

A figure  from elvish lore

Had just walked through the tavern door

Whose deeds were known far and wide

 

Dragons he had slain

Kings and kingdoms he had saved

Even fought the nasty orc

 

As he sat to drink his beer

The wizard did appear 

Blue eyes and long black hair

A purple robe 

In his hand a staff

Sat down across from the elf and drank his glass

 

Together they talked and planned 

Of adventures throughout the land

          A most fanciful write that takes one to the Hobit maybe. Lovely

                Like watching a scene from a movie. I wonder what adventures were being planned? Much enjoyed Tony.

                    Yes, this does have a Tolkien tone to it. I could see the Hobbits reciting this piece to each other in a tavern. A fine write.

                      There is a lot more to this story, keep writing.

                        Ooh! Which novel inspired this pretty number, eh?! Told in grade school that I'd apparently been born with "elf ears!", yea, watching an entire huge class of girls stare at me while it was passed ear to ear in whispers, I don't favor hanging out with wizards or pulling off such stunts. But that aside, what fun this is! Enchantingly rendered with a haunting poignancy and superb imagery. Thank you very much for sharing.

                          Thank you and you're welcome
