Mechtild's

Ah, that was beautifully said, Este. It would seem that every facet of the story is one that touches readers deeply, though not all readers equally. It depends on the life experience of the reader.

I just read another poem of jan-u-wine's, which I may just have to feature with some screencaps or something. It's about writing the Red Book at Bag End, too. It is SO great.

Here's a link to it:

Two other super post-Quest poems I just read of Jan's are:

They Say - a look at Frodo from Sam's POV, thinking of what folks are thinking of his master:

The Last Turn of the Road - a stunning portrayal from Frodo's POV of his coming home to Bag End (it seems to be the restored, not ruined Bag End):
