Dr. Tim Furnish’s selection for today is this stirring poem about Gondor. #TolkienReadingDay Gondor! Gondor, between the Mountains and the Sea! West Wind blew there; the light upon the Silver Tree Fell like bright rain in gardens of the Kings of old. O proud walls! White towers! O winged crown and throne of gold! O Gondor, Gondor! Shall Men behold the Silver Tree, Or West Wind blow again between the Mountains and the Sea? ~ The Two Towers, “The Riders of Rohan” (Artwork: Anke Eissman) Tim is the author of “High Towers and Strong Places: A Political History of Middle-earth.” Available on Amazon and from our shop: https://olorisbookshop.com/collections/non-fiction/products/high-towers-and-strong-places -- source link
