The LOST CHRISTMAS POEM of J.R.R. Tolkien | Noel

Noel was written by J.R.R. Tolkien for the Christmas bulletin of Our Lady’s Abingdon in Oxfordshire. At the time Tolkien was in the process of writing the Hobbit. As the parish bulletin was rather small, the poem was lost over the course of time.

In fact, researchers weren't aware of its existence until in 2013 when they found a note written by Tolkien making reference to it; upon which they were able to track down the bulletin and uncover Tolkien's Lost Christmas Poem: Noel.

Hope you enjoy!
