The four cousins
Never Apart
Just by a year
Our birthdays appear
One of them is a sister
The other two are almost
As close.
We played and hung out
Almost everyday
It became what I would
Call the most important
Part of a day.
We grew up together
In the same household
We played on the See-Saw.
That See-Saw went up and down
Two on each side,
We were perfect.
Childhood with the cousins
Was the best.

Reading response Theme

               The theme in the book "Lord of the Rings" by J.R.R Tolkien is that Frodo relies  on the wisdom and knowledge his protectors. For example, Gandalf is one of the examples Frodo relies on.
Gandalf is so much more powerful than them so they rely on the most powerful person that can protect them. Gandalf is going on this quest with Frodo. Gandalf's job is to protect and guide Frodo through his journey. Gandalf is helpful in the journey because he says important information. For example, he says that if the ring is worn too frequently the person who is wearing the ring will be subsumed into the spirit world. Without Gandalf Frodo couldn't succeed anything. He needed somebody more powerful and someone that can guide him and protect him throughout the journey. Also, later in the books they have to defeat Sarouman and you need Gandalf for that because nobodies more powerful than him. Tom Bombadil is another one of Frodo's supporters to help him with his journey. Bombadil is  wise and powerful. Frodo needs all the help he can get. He as to rely on wisdom and knowledge. And obviously Tom and Gandalf are to great examples of that. He also need both tom and Gandalf because Frodo has a tough decision if to wear or not wear the ring.
