You'll remember me when the westwind moves
Upon the fields of barley
You'll forget the sun in his jealous sky
As we walk in fields of gold

--Sting


I had almost forgotten this song from 1993 and nearly cried when I heard it again a few weeks ago. It was the summer where I read the Silmarillion for the first time, and it always reminded me of Amarie, the beloved of Finrod who had not left Valinor with him. When I heard the song again, the picture just popped up in my mind.

Watercolour and Photoshop.
