The poem I read is called "Roads Go Ever On", I liked this poem because Tolkien talks about how roads go through everything and everywhere. For example, roads go over rocks and by caves where the sun never shines. I also liked how the author mentions how he wants to follow the road and does not know where the road will end or even begin. This is a very good poem, there are so many examples about roads going over things and also where they start and where they end. I like the last stanza because the author leaves the reader wondering about a new road and having a secret gate.
