The Hobbit Hole XVI - Still round the corner there may wait...
See our freeper.the-hobbit-hole.net home page! ^

Posted on 10/05/2004 3:33:41 PM PDT by HairOfTheDog

Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!

Still round the corner there may wait...

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!

It'll be neither quick nor smooth, but I know that already. The only real question will be whether the deficiences they find will be things that I can adequately explain.

They told us *up front* that they will report deficiences, no matter how good things are. If the don't note deficiences, then the regulators will assume that they didn't look close enough.

Neat system, huh?
