The Hobbit Hole X - That none have seen but we alone.

Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!

...That none have seen but we alone.

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!

*laughing*

Well then, it's time to broaden your horizons a bit and let other people give you a challenge. ;-)

I like Pictionary. I just can't draw!! It can be a word like "horse" and I'll draw something that looks like centipede. *shakes head sadly*

I'm contemplating going to DC.

I wish I could, too. There will be an outpouring of emotion the likes of which have not been seen since FDR's death and the JFK assassination, I suspect.

Wow! And you think *I'm* a good poet?! That was fantastic!

I can almost hear the guitar as I read it.

Truly wonderful, Fedora. Really.

I gotta do somethin' to make 'em think I'm okay! ;-)

Hehehehe...Becky's only met you once and she thinks you're more than "okay", sis!

Speaking of Becky, she drank a cup of coffee at my grandmother's house today and is STILL up! And no, I didn't give it to her. Grrrr....

Thanks, Ruthy! I wish I had a recording of the guitar accompaniment to link to--need to get that sometime. My friend who did it used to play bass for a band that toured as backup to KISS; he's really good and came up with an amazing mix of Celtic and rock ballad style to go with the lyrics.

Yes, it was very good, but a bit wordy.

I'd like to get his letters to Nancy book. I heard it was wonderful!

I redid the thread logo.

And you outdid yourself again, ecurbh. I especially *adore* the pic of him and Nancy. Their love for each other was truly inspiring and rare.

Cool friend!

And you *definitely* should get a copy of that accompaniment!! We'd love to hear it. :-)
