The Hobbit Hole VIII - Still round the corner we may meet...
See our freeper.the-hobbit-hole.net home page! ^

Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!

Still round the corner we may meet...

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!

I was going to suggest that ExGI not sit on the pins and needles any more if they are pointy.... I think suggesting he sit on that guy's hat is only gonna make things worse. ;~D

I prefer Tolkein's non-pointy elves to Santa's very pointy ones.

No call yet....grrrr

Oy! I'm off at class, stifling comments about people who write stories about suicide bombers and deadbeat fathers, and you're Elf-bashing?

It's a lovely day, though, so I'll let it pass.

Can't believe I leave for a few hours to take care of important business and I come back to all this hatred and animosity! :-(

And Corin! After giving you my award for finest dwarf last night even!!!

< --- elf arrow in dwarf!!

I'm gonna have to have someone monitor elfbashing when I leave to have my elven locks deep conditioned in the future!

Hi WN!

I thought of you today. It's a lovely day, so I must have passed a dozen bikers out. The nicest one was a Triumph. That was a good looking machine! Most of the rest were 'old guy' bikes. They're so padded and shielded, you might as well be in a car - can you picture what I'm talking about?
