D is for Drawing

            “Drawing certainly is one of Frodo’s Gifts,” Aunt Dora Baggins said as she looked through the folder Bilbo had given her to examine.  “This Butterfly appears almost ready to Flutter Away!”

            Bilbo nodded with satisfaction.  “He’s always been good with drawing, but now he’s becoming a veritable master.  And for Yule I’ve managed to procure for him colored chalks made by the Dwarves of Erebor.  I cannot wait to see what he does with them!”

            By spring Dora had three great pictures of butterflies and flower blossoms, framed in delicate pale birch, hanging in her parlor.  She felt Most Gratified!
