And the King proves himself also a worthy steward for the land and its people! Delightful!

I love this revisiting of the former vision, with it now being a reality, his own beloved wife the woman offering refreshment! A joyful Good Friday to you!

Ah, I love seeing Aragorn as the Priest-King, even if it is merely in vision. And this vision is a needful one for the sensitive man who knelt in that future before him.

Many thanks for your much appreciated reviews. I love having a chance to show Aragorn as the Priest-King.

A far too grim awakening for this warrior who would far rather be on the farm than on the battlefield. Well done!

Harvest can be a thirsty and back-breaking business indeed! But the rewards are great. Nicely done!

How wonderful the sight of that first apple must have been; and you bring it all to life here for us, through Faramir.

Many thanks for your much appreciated review. I'm pleased you liked my drabble, which is based on a real life story my Mother told me.

Faramir, you really need to go home and party in Minas Tirith for a few days. Falling asleep on battlefields can be dangerous to your health! But it does make for a lovely drabble...

Many thanks for your much appreciated review. i agree faramir needs some rest, but I think the battle was over or nearly over when he had the vision. I'm pleased you liked this.

I really love this drabble - the imagery is so vivid and strong; the description of a happy, productive harvest day; and then we are brought back to a far less pleasant day, that future far away. At least the reader, unlike Faramir, knows for certain that the golden future in his vision will come true.

Many thanks for your much appreciated review,so far my only one here! I'm delighted you enjoyed this drabble. It was one of those that just jumped into my head and those usually turn out better than those I labour and agonise over!

Ingenious use of the Thresh prompt and a thoughtful, eloquent look at Faramir.

Many thanks for your much appreciated review. I found this prompt very hard and am pleased it worked for you.

A fine drabble - we can see how Faramir is a renaissance man of sorts, and Boromir's heart centers on soldiering. And I would have paid good money to see them both working out with scythes!

A beautiful image, Faramir feeling that farming is easier to judge than warfare.

I like the idea that Faramir has a better appreciation for the needs of peacetime than does his brother. Lovely, Linda.
