It's been a time since I read this one. Still beautiful, Ann.

Author Reply: Thank you! It's still one of my own favorite pieces, too - I can see it all so clearly, like a little film I watch in my head.

And I love to see her dancing with Boromir. Who has a warmer heart than his father, even if he's less of a thinker.

Yes, I think Boromir, as well as Faramir, inherited a fair bit of their mother's charm. Too bad he didn't have as many opportunities to put it to use!

Ah, this was lovely. So much insight into this woman in such a small space. I loved her insight into Boromir; that this perfectly charming gentleman was fulfilling his obligation to dance even though he had no interest in such things. And the hint that this had become an amusing ritual between them; his offer and her refusal. But I was glad that her heart softened at last and she danced with him.

Author Reply: Thank you so much. This was the original piece, written back in 2005, and still a very great favorite of mine. I'm glad to have the opportunity to revisit the story a bit.
