Disclaimer: Rosie, Sam and Frodo and everything else "Lord of the Rings" - related belong to the heirs of the genius author JRR Tolkien. I'm just borrowing his wonderful characters with deepest respect for Professer JRR Tolkien's creation and don't intend to make any money with it or to infringe copyrights held by the heirs of JRR Tolkien and New Line Cinema.

Thanks: go to "Bill the Pony" for inspiring this poem with her story "Forelithe 1482" and betaing it. "Forelithe 1482" is not online, yet. I will put up a note, when it's up. If you wanna read her other stories in the meantime (and you should), they are at Bill's Paddock.


Following Him

von Franzi

© 11.02.2002


Many decades have passed
Since I watched you leaving,
Leaving for good.
It was hard for me to see you go,
To know that maybe I never get the chance
To tell you what I've been hiding
Deep in my heart
Ever since we were lads.
I've never dared to tell you,
For I was afraid that you would reject me.

I became old.
And now that my dear Rosie died,
I'm ready to follow you,
To join you again - in the West.
Maybe then I can tell you
The five words that are so important to me.

I love you, Mr. Frodo.
