Happy Birthday, mews1945

[dreamflower]

Mews dear, I hope you've been having a Happy Birthday! Here's a little dribble for you, inspired by the first story of yours that I read, "In Frodo's Hands":

(In Minas Tirith, Pippin observes Frodo and remembers.)

Remembering Frodo's Hands

I watch him sleep, now, exhausted by all the celebrations.
Sam, protective as ever, slumbers soundly by his side.
Merry has gone to protect someone else dear,
Théoden's place of rest in the hallows.
So now I watch my Frodo,
tracing the lines of sorrow;
remembering his gentle hands
guiding my own
childish ones
carefully.

This is beautiful, dear! 'Tracing the lines of sorrow' - there would be a lot of those, sadly.

Sadly, yes. I'm so glad you liked it!
