The Hobbit Hole VIII - Still round the corner we may meet...

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!

Hair; love them arrow shootin' pics, expecisally when our ambidextrous archer, draws with his left hand and still shoots two arrows off the right hand side of the bow. Draw hand fingers nicely separated to allow for a smooth releases. :-)

I kinda figure Legolas had at least a 19-20 score in Dexterity--ROFL!

Yeah, 17 years of friendship does make it a tricky situation! But it might help the friendship if you can define the boundaries of the relationship and avoid the stress over the ambiguity. Right now it sounds like the physical and emotional distance are fueling some bad feelings. What's the deal--he won't make a commitment to you but he still wants to have a long-distance relationship within the boundaries of what he's willing to commit, or something like that?

Exactly!!!

That question begs to be asked right along with why the eagles didn't just fly the ring or Frodo to Orodruin in the first place!

Course, the story woulda been too short then.

Not as complicated as all that, Fedora! I'm a simply gal and although my life is complicated, I try to keep things as simple as possible.

Basically, he would be interested if he lived here, but since he doesn't ever plan to, he doesn't want to get involved in a long-distance thing (neither do I!).

We've been friends so long that we know we love each other dearly, so if we don't end up together, it's not as heartbreaking as if we had actually dated once.

Exactly what I've always said! :) Of course I'm sure if you asked Tolkien he'd have come up with a cool reason why they couldn't do that :) Maybe Sauron had aerial spies watching the skies over Mordor or something--after all the eagles didn't fly to Orodruin until after the Ring had been destroyed.

The "Indiana Jones" stuff really doesn't belong in LotR, does it?

It was just a bit of fun!

*sigh*

All you have to do is decide what you have to do with the time that is given to you.

hmmmm.....
