Notes About The Poem



(inspired by ROTK,from my LOTR poetry collection, Frodo sadly saying good-bye, to Sam)
 

 

Sailing Away

Don't you worry about me,Sam, With them,I'll be as happy as I can be. We'll make it far away to the sea, Sailing from here to there,you'll see. This long road must I take now, Awaiting us is the Elven's white ship. Somehow I'm certain that we'll get there, To the "Undyng Lands", we'll happily go. So many things I need to know, Things, to make my heart again aglow. It's been so long ago for me, Since clear layers of rainbows, I've seen. Today I join this journey very sad, Hoping, that one day you'll join me too. Without you, I'll sailing soon the sea, But one day,we'll be together you and me.

Dear Dorian, There is a sweetness and an affecting sadness in this poem that I find touching and moving. Congratulations on an excellent composition (wish I had written it).
