The Message Gandalf Brought From Galadriel To Legolas
by J. R. R. Tolkien
Legolas Greenleaf long under tree
In joy thou hast lived. Beware of the Sea!
If thou hearest the cry of the gull on the shore,
Thy heart shall then rest in the forest no more.
You will find as you look back upon your life that the moments when you have truly lived are the moments when you have done things in the spirit of love.
