Poor old Denethor! His really is a sad story. Beautiful.

Author Reply: My heart absolutely ached for Denethor. Thank you, Pearl, for feeling it too!

whoa! Awesome

It gave me shivers.

MEWD!

Author Reply: To a litle brother - no matter how old - his elder brother can be a 'god' and I somehow feel that's the way Faramir felt of Boromir - and yet also the other way around....

How very sad....

Oh dear but you're good at this!! :-D :-D

Such fun!

Author Reply: Can't you just see them riding along, all puffed up with their importance as horse lords, and just belting out a lusty battle song! I couldn't help it!

Heinous indeed - but good! Well done :-)

Author Reply: Oh I really hated to do that to Boromir - but evil o'ertook me! Glad you enjoyed it! *giggles*

Faramir's pride and grief and wonder all brought together so sparingly.

Author Reply: Thanks, Larner. I feel so inadequate with poetry. Thank you for not making me feel it was stupid... Deepest thanks!

This is a wonderful expression of the grief Faramir and Denethor must have felt as they held the cloven horn in their hands, realizing Boromir was indeed dead and would not return.

Author Reply: I cannot even imagine the pain - that Horn was revered by all of Gondor - to hold it, broken, would have been as sacrilege. BUT to know why it was broken and the consequences of that... too horrible to imagine.

And grief comes even to the immortals. Death and loss are common to all, unfortunately. "Death is but another road, one we all must take."

Author Reply: I should have given some kind of prologue to this... for it was about Boromir, Faramir's immortal... for do we not think that those we love can never be hurt, never die?

Oh [gasp] my [snort] G-d! [mwahahahahahahaha!]

That was hysterical!

Of course, now I need to check and see how big a bruise I sustained from falling out of my chair laughing.

Thanks for the laugh!

Author Reply: I am so glad you liked it - I hope, though, that you haven't hurt yourself too much?

This was most enjoyable and fitted in well with a song I remember from childhood.

Author Reply: Glad it brought back a happy memory! And thanks for commenting!

The other song brought back memories of a happy childhood reading the Childcraft poetry book with my mother; and this of watching westerns on TV and Donkey on the back of the onion carriage.

The Rohirrim and Rawhide. Oh, DEAR!

Thanks for the giggles.

Author Reply: Silly mood - definitely. I could just see those guys riding their horses across the plains of Rohan - singing mightily, a stirring song to get the blood warmed! ROTFL

Thanks for reading and mostly for responding!
