It looks like Tolkien was mocking himself out (besides it being, of course, absurd in a more literal way, too,
Tut, tut, HI! And what do we have in LotR but the River-daughter? Goldberry may not be a fairy wife, but she is daughter of a river spirit and controller of weather herself. (Of course, there are those who think Tom and Goldberry are absurd, I guess.) The Old Forest is full of feys and spriggans and boggarts I think, only they like the hobbits aren't so visible.
