Onward, forward, following Into darkest night
There’s no hope for them
Not a glimmer of light
Plodding on
Through hopeless gloom
Bearing an evil burden
The Ring of Doom
This fell upon Frodo Baggins
The heir of Bilbo the hobbit
His friend Sam wanted to go
His wish, well, he got it!
Sam had only wanted
To see the elves
Frodo took him beyond Rivendell
Through dark dwarven delves
Dear, good, simple Sam
He bore a burden none would bear
He followed Frodo to Mordor
