Sure, I'll give you a hint! But not pm. That would be unfair to everyone else here. There are hardly any words in there which are not important. For example BLEACHED and LIGHTENED. (Wink, wink. And it's not a balrog.)

Sprawling and twisted: The Misty Mountains?
And power of Gandalf: That's so close, I would have to say you got it.

Hmm. Yes, it does help. But you know me, my mind is on maps. Does it have to do with anything geographical?

All right, Beard, you asked for it. (You know I am incapable of giving a short answer.)
Dreams, visions while you search Do you remember Frodo's dreams of Gandalf while they were waiting and searching for him? Rooted past, lofty perch. On Orthanc, ancient tower, yet tall. Winter passes unpassed. Passing benieth where winter was (Redhorn's passes) through Moria. Call unto them at last. Gandalf's cry as he fell into the pit in Moria. Bleached stones and lightened self. Now on the mountain, transmuted into Gandalf the white. Elf, yes, and yet not elf. Valaquenta, where it says that Orlorin would take the form of an elf. Now the wielder of fire (Given art/Mastery) clues: In my hand, Pipe In my heart, A common saying. (Fire in hir heart.) In the wood, His staff.

I want to do one that's not pertinent to Middle Earth. Here goes:
With no intent, 'tis caused by haste Soon with blood 'twill be encased The culprit, it seems, is no more than a line But when turned, it's of the rectangular kind Related to trees in name but not trait For reconciliation, you will have to wait Pretty obscure. You can do it.
