I've had three very weird and random LotR related dreams. The first one is when I'm in a wood, but all I can see are leaves everywhere. They are big and green and kind of thick, like lilly pads but shaped differently. Somehow I know that they are mallorn leaves and think to myself, 'I should pick a few of those up, they'll look good in my sketchbook', because at the time I was doing an art project on leaves.

The second one is more as if I'm an onlooker and I'm not invloved in the situation. I could see Denethor sitting on a chair with a young Faramir (I'm guessing about nine or ten) and a slightly older Boromir at his feet. Denethor has three books, they're kind of thick and kind of old and worn, bound in red or blue leather, and he gives two of them to Boromir and one to Faramir. I can remember worrying that Faramir would feel left out, but he looked pretty pleased with his book all the same. Then the scene changes and I'm walking out of a bookshop with the three books under my arm.

And the third is when I'm at Amon Hen (I think) and I'm running with Gimli (well, I have a very clear image of following him up a path) and suddenly there are a load of Uruk Hai and I have to kill them. I have a sword but I'm not very good with it (you know in dreams when you want to run but can't? It was like that but with a sword). I think it kept switching between them being real Uruk Hai and men dressed up as them, like in the movie. I have very vague recollections of Aragorn and Legolas being about as well. Then the scene changes and I'm in my school music block with Gimli, and there's a queue of kids waiting to come up the stairs, and for some absurd reason I pretend to stab them with my sword and then let them pass me. But as they pass I hand them a jam sandwich.

But what do these dreams mean? That's what I'd like to know.
