I can just see her in my mind's eye - instilling the love of the mountain in her sons.

Thank you! I'm very glad that worked for you.

This is wonderful. She was strong, and put her strength into her sons.

Thank you! I'm very glad you liked it.

I love the images she puts into all she herself creates. And that song is now an icon of current culture.

Thank you! I'm glad you liked it. The bit in the LOTR appendices that talks about Thorin and his people says "in their songs they spoke ever of the Lonely Mountain far away." So I thought why not that song, too?
