I came too late

Nimrodel's searching for Amroth

I came too late
Thou are gone
and I am left
behind thee.

O have I not seen
the Green Hill and
Linden tree where
at noon the Sun
herself was smiling
behind the leaves?

O have I not remember well
thou words by the silvering pool?

And have I not answering to thee
at the time when the Moon himself
was laughing above the roof of trees;
'Take me with you to the far West
where hills are more green and water
run deeper than thou can ever guest!'

O I came too late! The ship has gone
and I will go to seek thou my love,
but I'll not cross the Great Sea without thee!

And will not water still remember the
voice of Nimrodel?

Beautiful and wonderful words shared.
"O I came too late! The ship has gone
and I will go to seek thou my love,
but I'll not cross the Great Sea without thee!"
I loved the above lines. Written with the skills of the ancient writers. Thank you dear Sarah for sharing the outstanding poetry.
