| Wow, great poem! I can feel Boromir's grief in these words. Wonderful. Author Reply: Thank you my dear! One of my favorite moments is when Boromir turns around and looks at his brother for the last time, not knowing he isn't coming back *sniff* | |

| Rereading this one. So true to Boromir's nature. I hear it in Sean Bean's voice, of course; and see it as Boromir's tribute to the one who must eventually fill the place intended for himself. Thanks. Author Reply: Sean Bean has a great voice...his eyes aren't bad either *g* Whoever did the casting in the movie must have been an eye person, gorgeous eyes all over the place.....ahem..... I guess I'm not alone in considering the movie Boromir to be a vast improvement over the book one. Didn't like him that much in the book, loved him in the movie! I love it when people re-read my stuff! xoxx Armariel~~~{~@ | |

| Beautiful movie-verse statement--to see the love of the older brother for the wiser younger one, whom he recognizes as his superior for all Faramir is the younger. Author Reply: Whoops, missed this one somehow. The love was conveyed beautifully in the movie, I thought. Big mistake leaving that scene out of the theatrical version of TTT, it's one of my favorite scenes anywhere and makes a huge difference! Thanks bunches...glad you're not shy about reviewing any more. I'm often puzzled by how few people review; I always tell people when I like something they've written, maybe I don't review every single chapter, but eventually I must tell them! | |

| Somehow the word "poet" makes me think of a chort, squat little man in a white button-up and a tight black cap, whereas "poetess" makes me picture a tall, dark lady in a long, sweeping gown, one white had resting gently on a stone rail, a well worn leather covered book tucked under the other, and small ink stains on her thumbs. Don't know where that came from!!! Author Reply: LOL well, neither description fits me...but I'm afraid the first one comes closest to it!:D I think Elizabeth Barrett Browning was the first female poet who preferred "poet" to "poetess"...which just sounds a little too Victorian to me, sorry...lol | |

| Love it! Captures his love for his brother perfectly. Well, then, I am not a poet, I am a poetess! Author Reply: Thanks, well, I like "poet" better although I am also female, but whatever floats your ducky *gggg* blessings, Armariel~~~{~@ | |
