And look at the relationships he has with Old Man Willow and with Goldberry. OMW is really sinister and almost consumes the Hobbits, but is not treated as evil by Tom, just as a wild thing that needs singing to in order to be tamed. Goldberry is the daughter of the river and has to be brought offerings of water lillies to keep her content over the winter months. 'Evil' doesn't seem to figure in Tom's world, things just 'are'. That really is innocent.
