Where have I read this before? I really like this. It flows very nicely and the rhyme is good. Great job!

This was really a creative idea! I like the way you matched the rhythm and rhyme patterns to the dwarf song Tolkien wrote (maybe that's why ellisk thinks it's familiar?)...it just puts you in mind of the dwarves right away. Your progression of ideas flows very well, and the writing seems almost effortless, unforced. Nice job!

Thanks, eelisk and Galadriel8891, for your reviews. I'm glad you both liked it so much!

As for where you've seen it before ellisk, I've posted it at other sites before (SOA and HASA), and I was using it in my WIP, "The Best Brew in Buckland", where Gimli sings it in a Minas Tirith pub. I just never got around to posting it at OSA.

Great job, Marta. You've followed the Professor's lead beautifully and crafted something uniquely your own. I particularly liked the not-so-serious ending; it was a nice contrast to the earlier drama.

Sorry to use the reviews as a place for conversation but...you're right. I read it just a few days ago at SOA and left a review for it there too. That's why it seemed SOOO familar. Sure am relieved I'm not crazy. I do really love this one though. I can so see the dwarves singing this.

love this. I can just hear deep lovely dwarf voices singing it.........with just enough ale to make 'em really mellow

Marta, this was wonderful! Well done! I can hear them singing it!
