Thank you for doing this in remembrance of the love of the Tolkiens, one for another.

As a true poet and lover of the shining truth beneath the mundane facades, it was fitting that he treasured his wife so much.

[siradaono]

Well said, well writ.

[curuchamion]

Ohh, so lovely. Especially the plucked-flower simile... that's just perfect.

Thank you - so much of Tolkien's work has an undercurrent of tragedy, really, life and death together.

Lovely, just beautifully written there. Poetic Primsong!
