seraiThe first LOTR-related piece I ever wrote.
Title: Guardian
Rating: G
Pairing: That's for me to know and for you to find out!
Disclaimer: All credit for Middle-Earth and its extraordinary characters, places and stories go to the blessed Professor Tolkien. I don't make a dime off this, nor would I wish to.
Guardian
What I had not counted on
was how much I would come to love him.
How good and strong he was,
how well-placed the fate that
rested on his shoulders.
True, he could be foolish,
they all could, walking
heedless and enchanted into danger.
But there was neither guile
nor deceit in him,
nor any taint of darkness,
any evil.
It might have made me careless,
my love for him.
Instead, it made me watchful
and determined.
From the outset, I was determined
not to fail.
