Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!
A sudden tree or standing stone
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! |

We'll buy some extra flip-flops for people who wear the wrong shoes.

We should just get a box full of $.99 flip-flops and issue them like party favors. Problem solved.

60 years later, at a long-expected party, the shoes were photographed on a pair of Hobbit-feet. . .

Speaking of party favors, did you know I bought 60 puka-shell necklaces? Still need more... couple more thrift stores to hit.
