The Hobbit Hole XII - Tree and flower and leaf and grass
See our freeper.the-hobbit-hole.net home page! ^

Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!

...Tree and flower and leaf and grass

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 know, but sometimes I think, "I'm still young, I should be on the beach, clubbing"; then I realize the only club I really belong in is one called Bedrock. So much for youth!

Same to you, sir!

I coulda tolerated it if she wasn't hanging on everyone there. I don't like people in my space! If she hadn't gotten away pretty quickly...I mighta done something I'da regretted later.

Or not.

Well... I can deal with the insects too.

But, I have *issues* with things with no legs!

Never did the clubbing thing.

Maybe that's too bad...but then, I can REMEMBER all my good experiences. ;-)

Is the snake dead now?

I'd rather have an obnoxious drunk in my yard than *any* snake. I can deal with drunks better.

One should always have the proper glassware available...and there lies the problem. :)

HA! Not really! Kids are more fun when you keep your youth.

Yes....I'm debating shotglass, coffee mug, or iced tea glass.

Yes, I agree, the correct glassware is vital ... hence the name "K.C. Lemonade." Lemonade can be sipped from any common container --- water glass, coffee mug, whatever. Liquor is, quite properly, restricted to its own designated container types --- shot glass, high-ball glass, champagne flute, et al.
