A Hobbit and His Lass

There once was a hobbit
Who had hair the sun lit
Small and proud was he
Like the stump of an old tree
He lived in a hole in a ground
With doors and windows round

He lived a peaceful life
He didn't know about strife
Until a day came to pass
When a small hobbit lass
Took his heart away
One sunny, autumn day

She was fair and kind
Many hobbit lads had her in their mind
"She has a smile like the sun."
The hobbit lad whispered as he watched her have fun
His good friend pushed him towards the lady
"Go have a dance! Stop being lazy!"

A month or two did pass
When that small hobbit lass
Would be the one in the hobbit lad's peace
For he would go on a journey full of unease
Samwise Gamgee was this hobbit lad's name
And a quest he set out
Full of trials and doubt

He helped his friend Frodo destroy a great shadow
Poor Sam found that life was full of sorrow
Yet he thought of his hobbit lass
"This evil, Mr. Frodo, it will pass."
His heart was brave and thoughts full
Of helping his friend and that homeward's pull

Finally after so many days
They went home and parted ways
With friends they had made along their quest
To a place they once knew best
Sam found his courage to ask his lass
To marry him and his story is passed
