And wind upon my hair

I sit beside the fire and thinkOf how the world will beWhen winter comes without a spring

That I shall ever seeFor still there are so many thingsThat I have never seenIn every wood in every springThere is a different green

I sit beside the fire and thinkOf people long agoAnd people that will see a worldThat I shall never know

But all the while I sit and thinkOf times there were beforeI listen for returning feetAnd voices at the doorJ.R.R. Tolkien
