I'd been meaning to read it and oh! I loved it. Then I reread it last summer and decided this year to find and read The Lord of the Rings. I just finished it yesterday! Oh it was beautiful, sad and happy both at the same time! One of my fave rhymes (one I have set a tune to and go around singing) is Sam's rhyme at the tower: In western lands beneath the Sun, the flowers may rise in Spring the trees may bud, the waters run, the merry finches sing Or maybe tis' cloudless night and swaying beeches bear the Elven-stars as jewels white amid their branching hair Though here at journey's end I lie in darkness buried deep beyond all towers strong and high beyond all moutains steep above all shadows rides the Sun and Stars for ever dwell: I will not say the Day is done, nor bid the Stars fare well. Ah, if you have a heart for beautiful words of this kind you live in Tolkien's world of mind " In a hole in the ground there lived a hobbit . . . " That's where it all began.</p> |
