Title: Three haikus
Text type / Format: poetry (haiku)
Source / Fandom: Silmarillion
Rating: G
Word Count: 48 words (including titles)
Summary: Three rather different haikus, written for prompts of the current SWG challenge.
/Strumming the Heart Strings/
(The Noldor; perhaps Maglor)
Who chants shared exile,
sends old griefs rippling seaward,
softly killing song?
/Ladylike Behaviour/
(Luthien)
Three times a lady:
climbs trees, sings walls down, wears bat.
And Beren loves her.
/Hitchhiking in Beleriand/
Don't even bother
panicking. Run! Not that way!
Any way but north.
A/N: Prompts: "Killing Me Softly With His Song" by Roberta Flack; "Three Times a Lady", the song by The Commodores; Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, by Douglas Adams.<\cut>
