Happy belated birthday to you, my dear friend
Thank you for taking us with you on this special journey,
Thank you for all the love and joy you’re giving us.
Friends like you keeps us closer to Middle Earth,
Closer to this wonderful adventure.

Memories
The near is almost over, time to relax, to get some rest –
Time for memories.
Memories.
Special ones.
Good ones.
Sad ones, too.
Photos.
The quintessence of memories…
Put in albums, boxes…
Treasures … all of them.
Books
The Trilogy.
Sweet moments of past days.
Almost 10 years ago I started
my magical journey.
A journey that changed my life …
and me.
Pictures of breathtaking landscapes,
pictures of co-workers…
dear friends
they’ve become all.
There was so much to discover,
there still is.
Some of my friends
unfortunately got lost …
out of focus.
Some of them are still very close.
I remember the first days then
when I took the first slow steps
toward Middle Earth.
Respectful as well as curious,
excited as well as careful.
Fascinated.
This hasn’t changed.
Holding one of the pictures
that shows me
makes me happy
and sad.
Sometimes I wish I could go back…
to start anew…
Being Frodo again.
Though he never left me.
Middle Earth
can be everywhere –
No matter
where I am.
No matter
who I am.
It depends on me, on us
to keep it alive.
You just have to say “yes”
to wishes, dreams and fantasy.
For my part
I don’t want it to end.
It’s an encouraging thought
that so many people
said this magical word.
I said it, too.
Closing the books,
leaving the photo in it
like a bookmark…
I’m sure
the next time
I’ll look at it –
it will tell me another story.
Another adventure.
I’m glad
That Frodo will always
be a part of me..
on the constant journey
of my life.
Those sweet memories
can’t be taken away…
they will remain.
Forever.

I'm glad you like it. Reading the Fellowship of the Ring, watching the film made me melancholic and sentimental. But I think sometimes we need just this.
Yes.
