Mary (crb), thank you for your heartfelt comments. Truly, they mean a lot to me, for you seem to have poured yourself into them.
I will email jan-u-wine and tell her of your comment. If you browse through the collection of her Frodo poems at that site, you will see how deeply she seems to have got into Frodo's POV, reflecting his many moods. And the Frodo whose POV (point of view) she has got herself into is noble, thinking, wise, aesthetic -- but very, very human (LOL, I should say, "hobbit-like"), with strong feelings, sensitive to those of others.
It is a good sign, I think, that you are affected so deeply by reading LotR that you can't bear to do it often. What a powerful book it is!
I hope you read this, since you are not a registered LJ user. I know you will not be getting any sort of automatic notice that I have replied.
Re: Just amazing, both the manip and the poem.
