She Waits For Me (Back in the Shire)

She Waits For Me (Back in the Shire)

A Poem by Desert Knave
"

Stoking the home fire

"
She waits for me
Back in the Shire
Stoking the home fire

She beckoned me
To just survive
To come back alive

She prays for me
To fix this thing
To destroy this ring

Back in the Shire
Stoking the home fire
She waits for me
