So taken aback was I by the vantage from the tower of my own land’s confines that I gripped hard the balustrade to stop my moorless soul from taking flight
Trees either side of me Like I’m moving sweetly, fleetly, like a carried leaf Down the Anduin If you are born to be King then the lakelady will hand you it An anvil’s weight this unnamed crown leadlike with light-leaking jewels Fine rooms and suites, sweet things Lingering tastes, eyries; high peaks and tubular towers…
