A nice summation of Elrond's life, and it neatly acknowledges just how much he's contributed to the history of Middle-earth so far. My only gripe was more a matter of personal taste I think than any reflection on the writing - you obviously have a wonderful grasp of words and I'm looking forward to looking into your other poems here - but I wasn't too keen on the metre and rhyme used. The couplets just struck me as a bit too jaunty. But these things are incredibly subjective and, and usually I prefer poetry that is less rigid in style / rhyme etc. I'm sure others might interpret it differently. Once again I'm not meaning that as insulting or nasty - just my opinion. If you want me to explain anything I've said in this review, don't hesitate to PM me.

I agree that this does a wonderful job emphasizing all that Elrond contributed to Middle Earth. Of all the characters in Tolkien's world, I always found him the most tragic. Great job.
