Title:The Roses of Imloth Melui
Rating:G
Theme:Pairs Challenge
Elements:rose, thorn
Beta:
Author's Notes:It all belongs to the Tolkien Estate, I am just borrowing.
Summary:
Word Count:100
Kingsfoil did not hail from the lineage of the rose,
Yet its scent stirred memories of the fields of Imloth Melui.
Ioreth and her cousin worked in the summer sun
Filling the baskets with petals,
Blood-red, white and motley pink.
Their sweet fumigation hung in the air.
Boiled with honey or steeped in vinegar,
The flowers cured headache and soothed the catarrh.
Sighing, Ioreth stopped to draw a thorn from her glove.
“Never was there rose that had no thorn.”
Grief and weariness were lifted from her mind
As the scent of southern roses cleared the air of the sickroom.

It's the little box right underneath it that says override default (I should have mentioned that). Anyhow, click on that, and it makes a text box available and you can change the 9pt to, say, 10pt or 11pt. Then go to the bottom of the page, and hit save. When you come back, if you can't figure it out, I can always do it for you. Just let me know.
