| I've been meaning to review this for ages. It is one of the most beautiful poems I've ever read and expresses the sentiment perfectly. How wonderful that Sam can sometimes 'visit' Frodo - truly a gift from the Valar I think. Now I must ask you something. I have a story (half-written) which was inspired by this story, but obviously I ask your permission before posting. It sprang into my head the first time I read this poem and would not let go. Author Reply: Ooo wow, thanks! I always had a problem with those two not having any communication whatsoever and just had to come up with a way...perhaps Irmo Lord of Dreams might have had a hand in arranging occasional "visits" for them, although I felt that such could have its risks as well, rather like too many sleeping pills or pick-me-ups, they could get addictive and should be used very sparingly and only at need. Please do post your story, I would love to see it. And if it wouldn't let go, then most likely it was meant to be. I'm flattered to be the inspiration! Thanks once more! ~~~{~@ | |

| Once again you have me weeping. It is a beautiful and yet heartrending image, Sam able to cross the Bridge to Frodo only at need, until at the last he can go bodily to be with him. Author Reply: Well...not really "only", but Frodo is advising Sam against dwelling overmuch on the past, I think. Lovely place to visit, but not really a good idea to live there! At least, not until nearly the end of your days..... Thanks once more, I greatly value your comments! | |

| What a wonderful idea! I have often mourned the fact that Frodo and Sam should never see each other again but your idea brings hope to me again. Great poem! Author Reply: Exactly...my own relationship with my best friend, who lives on a different continent, inspired it. Well, some friends have the 'Net and some have Elf-magic...:) Thanks once more!
