"The Gardener and the Barmaid"
by: Jackstortugalass

Summary: A cute romantic narrative poem about Samwise and Rosie.

Disclaimer: I don't own LOTR but if I did, I'd own these two.

"Hullo, Samwise. What would you like tonight?"

"Hullo, Rosie. May I talk with you, if that's alright."

"Of course, Sam, you should know that you can talk to me by now."

I fiddle with the contents of my pockets. "We've been together for a long time."

She looks at me, uncertain. "We have, is that such an awful thing?"

"No, no just me father says it's time I think of getin' a lass of me own, that's all."

"I see. Have any ideas on who it is?"

"Would you mind being the wife of a gardener who works for Mr. Frodo?"

"Only if you mind being the husband to a barmaid at the Green Dragon Inn."

"Nothing would make me happier, Rose."

"You can tell your father that you're goin' to have a wife then."

"That I will," I blushed.

"What is it, Sam?"

"I was nervous 'bout askin' you, that's all."

She laughed, "That's my Samwise, the mighty gardener."

Fin.
