Oh, I read the reviews and I understand now. Poor Boromir.
God bless,
Galadriel

Author Reply: Alas, poor Boromir.

Have you read any of Pipkinsweetgrass' Beekeeper story? It's an AU where Boromir survives, and very well done. (And I'm one who doesn't usually enjoy AU... so take it from me!)

This is probably a silly question, but what were they weeping for? I try to remember all the dates, but I must have missed this. It's lovely, though.
God bless,
Galadriel

Author Reply: I see from your next review that you found the answer to your question.

I only knew the date because I looked it up! (This was posted for Memorial Day, I think, or else Veterans' Day. I don't remember, exactly. So the date wouldn't have matched in any event.)

Yes, a moment to haunt the memory indeed.

Author Reply: You know, I think the film changed my perception of the scene; made it more real, somehow, and more tragic, and more haunting.

Living with memory is tough. And anniversaries bring it all back - in full freshness and pain. But it changes - given time. The love remains, though.

Author Reply: Yes, it still hurts, but but the pain fades, somehow, though the love, as you said, remains.

Alas, poor Boromir. How it would have haunted them, and how they would have mourned, remembering that valiant and defiant hopeless battle at Parth Galen.

Author Reply: I do think that it must have stayed with them for the rest of their lives. I wonder if they ever went back there, on their visits south?

Lovely, gentle and so sad! You manage to get some wonderful descriptive writing into a few short words.

Author Reply: Thanks. It's always interesting to see how it'll come out, with only 100 words to work with.
