Disclaimer--I don't own anything Lord of the Rings. I don't own the song I Hope You Dance' by Lee Ann Womack either.

Not too sure about things here, but the last time I checked the first chick didn't die. It I do get it wrong, oh well, screw it. School is ending and I've given up caring until August. SABERS ROCK!

Celebrian looks through blurry eyes at her children. The pain in their eyes is apparent. They have a feeling they know what is coming. Her husband has tried to hide his fears, but she can see through him in ways no one else can. She sighs, and tells the three what they must know.

I hope you never lose your sense of wonder
You get your fill to eat but always keep that hunger
May you never take one single breath for granted
God forbid love leave you empty handed
I hope you still feel small when you stand beside the ocean
Whenever one door closes I hope one more opens
Promise me that you'll give faith a fighting chance
And when you get the choice to sit it out or dance

I hope you dance
I hope you dance

Many, many years later, Elrond looks to a small human boy. The boy's name means hope, and his hidden name means unity for humans. Right now, the ten year old looks out a window, and his eyes trail his leaving brothers. They have gone to make sure Legolas gets home saftely, and this time hasn't brought the boy.
Elrond puts a hand on the boy's small shoulders, and whisphers to him a secret.

I hope you never fear those mountains in the distance
Never settle for the path of least resistance
Livin' might mean takin' chances but they're worth thakin'
Lovin' might be a mistake but it's worth makin'
Don't let some hell bent heart leave you bitter
When you come close to sellin' out reconsider
Give the heavens above more than just a passing glance
And when you get the choice to sit it out or dance

I hope you dance.....I hope you dance (Time is a wheel in constant motion always rolling us along. Tell
I hope you dance.....I hope you dance me who wants to look back on their years and wonder where those years have gone?)

Years later, Arwen looks at her own children. Their father has passed on, and she is preparing to die as well. She has set things in order with her children for the past year, and they are grown enough to care for themselves. She is sad to leave them, but they all know it is time for her to go. As her mother promised, she will promise them.
I will always watch over you. Your father will do the same.
She remembers the last words she ever truly heard from her mother, and passes on the valuable information.

I hope you still feel small when you stand beside the ocean
Whenever one door closes I hope one more opens
Promise me that you'll give faith a fighting chance
And when you get the choice to sit it out of dance

Dance.....I hope dance
I hope you dance......I hope you dance (Time is a wheel in constant motion always rolling us along. Tell
I hope you dance......I hope you dance me who wants to look back on their years and wonder where
those years have gone?)

Arwen sets off into the distance. These will be her last few weeks in Middle Earth. She will reflect on her life, and be glad for what she has done. Then she will join her love for all time.

Tell me who wants to look back on their years and wonder where those years have gone?






So? Sappy, yes, but I was in the mood. Anyway, do what you want with the reviews, as long as I get some.
