Trust Lobelia Bracegirdle Sackville-Baggins to take offense at that! No, forget the wasp--introduce her to Shelob--the two of them deserve one another! Heh!

Author Reply: Many thanks for your much appreciated review and making me smile. It would be fun to see Lobelia meet Shelob!

She has every reason to feel honored. For so many the lotus is sacred!

And this faithfulness was but a glimpse of how he would seek to protect the dual realm he would one day rule.

Oh that Sam, who would have thought?! :)

Namarie, God bless, Antane :)

Eowyn's suggestions are more dramatic but I like Faramir's better. Hers would fit better in a larger story. Maybe he can also write about seeing his brother's funeral boat. That would be neat. :)

Author Reply: Many thanks for your much appreciated review.I did indeed write a longer story about a poisoner! Faramir's vision of Boromir would indeed make a great poem! May God bless you too.

Clever use of words! I think the Gaffer is eminently practical...

Love this drabble - very funny and has good characterization. One can feel young Sam's enthusiasm for new technology and his Gaffer's old-fashioned resistance to change (and good sense, since a smartphone won't help gardens grow); the eternal conflict between generations.

Author Reply: Many thanks for your much appreciated review. I'm pleased you enjoyed this drabble and found it funny. It came to me as a friend has a Blackberry!

O excellent. You pack a lot of punch into a compact space. Well done! I can feel his weariness, hear his pulse pounding in his ears, and yet the determination that lifts him out of himself and keeps him going, for others' sake... all is well sketched.

Author Reply: Many thanks for your much appreciated review. I'm so pleased this drabble worked for you.

I can so imagine him thinking this in the last run to the pyre where they burned the bodies of the orcs. Excellent use of the prompts!
