The Hobbit Hole VII - But not yet weary are our feet...
Posted on 03/15/2004 1:45:41 PM PST by HairOfTheDog
Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!
But not yet weary are our feet...
New verse:
|
Upon the hearth the fire is red,
Beneath the roof there is a bed;
But not yet weary are our feet,
Still round the corner we may meet
A sudden tree or standing stone
That none have seen but we alone.
Tree and flower and leaf and grass,
Let them pass! Let them pass!
Hill and water under sky,
Pass them by! Pass them by! |
Still round the corner there may wait
A new road or a secret gate,
And though we pass them by today,
Tomorrow we may come this way
And take the hidden paths that run
Towards the Moon or to the Sun.
Apple, thorn, and nut and sloe,
Let them go! Let them go!
Sand and stone and pool and dell,
Fare you well! Fare you well! |
Home is behind, the world ahead,
And there are many paths to tread
Through shadows to the edge of night,
Until the stars are all alight.
Then world behind and home ahead,
We’ll wander back to home and bed.
Mist and twilight, cloud and shade,
Away shall fade! Away shall fade!
Fire and lamp, and meat and bread,
And then to bed! And then to bed! |

Oh, my... I just saw the thread that we lost "RangerAirborne" today. Huh? I just got settled. Gotta go look for the thread. So, what are we gonna do to cheer you and Ruthy up? I just caught up on the conversation from while I was kid-busy. Sorry you two are so bummed. I feel bad for ya... but, I'm not on the same tidal schedule as you two I guess!

I'm heading to bed. Whatever's bugging me will hopefully go away by the time I wake up.
Good night everyone!

Max McGarrity too? Dang... I hadn't seen that one.
I saw the one about harpseal. I had some more convo about that with Lazamataz. They were business partners and very close. As it would happen, Laz was interested in one of the jobs I had open. Small world syndrome.
To: Wneighbor
:-) All smiles. You've already cheered me up. :-)
To: Ramius
:-) All smiles. You've already cheered me up. :-)Now, that's what I like to hear!!!
