The Hobbit By J.R.R Tolkien~A Ballad

So I read The Hobbit for my book report and had to write this for class:
What do you think of it? thanks! 

The story starts with Bilbo
A hobbit don't you see
They are small people that go up to the knee
A hole for a home they like cakes and tea

Bilbo Baggins does not do anything unexpected
He stays where he is and is respected
Then a party comes and inspected
The hobbit was to be a burglar-he was selected

Bilbo did not say yes instantly
After thinking hard on it he said yes
The next day you can guess
He ventures with some boldness

They came by 3 trolls
Bilbo pick-pockets them but gets caught
Cautions the dwarves should have taught
The wizard Gandalf freeing them on spot

So the journey moves on
Staying here and there
A lightning storm hits with a scare
spend the night by a cave which was bare 

Goblins found the 15 sleeping
Brought the travelers as prisoners
Saving the ponies as appetizers
planning to kill the dwarves afters

Of course they pick a fight
Running down tunnels, goblins on their tail
 They refuse to fail
They forget about the trapped hobbit' s bail 

Bilbo comes out of the dark tunnels and finds his friends
They travel onward until the wargs they meet another
They climb trees with dread about the other
Their faces draining color

Eagles save the 15 from death
They then travel to another fellow
Beon was his name and he was not mellow
They tricked him to letting them stay without a bellow

The hobbit invisible with his special  ring on finger
He frees his friends form poisonous spiders
They were really still outsiders
Starving,  they look for providers

They go up into the mountain
The red thief dragon Smaug's home
The dwarves tell Bilbo to roam
The gold the dragon was laying on piled like a dome

They anger the dragon
Smaug flies to the town
Most of which he drowns
Until he is killed down

The greed of the found gold argument turns to war
But with Wargs and goblins charging in
They forget every fight exept to win
And to kill all the wargs and goblins with a grin

The battle of the five armies was terrible
The songs that were made said so
The battle was dark until a chance of luck began to glow
Beon the half bear man and eagles took part in the blow

Bilbo wrote a story with all his adventures
For anything anybody said he didn't care
He was back in his comfortable chair
No words could compare what adventure he did dare.
