Fifty New Poems for Children: An Anthology Selected from Books Recently Published by Basil Blackwell is a book which includes J.R.R. Tolkien's poem "Goblin Feet" (erroneously attributed to "J.R.R. Tolkein"), which had previously been published in Oxford Poetry 1915. It also contains the poem "Romance" by E. F. A. Geachh, which Douglas A. Anderson has suggested could have inspired "The Road Goes Ever On" in The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings.[1]
