      O Orofarnë, Lassemista, Carnimírië! O rowan fair, upon your hair how white the blossom lay! O rowan mine, I saw you shine upon a summer’s day, Your rind so bright, your leaves so light, your voice so cool and soft: Upon your head how golden-red the crown you bore aloft! O rowan dead, upon your head your hair is dry and grey; Your crown is spilled, your voice is stilled for ever and a day. O Orofarnë, Lassemista, Carnimírië!

      People wonder why Tom Bombadil isn’t in the movies. Cause he’s fucking ridiculous and stupid in the books. The changes needed to make that character work on film, you may as well just not have him in it. Honestly a dumb and useless character. Ooooh he’s so mysteriously powerful! He’s useless is what he is
