The Hobbit Hole XVII - A new road or a secret gate...
See our freeper.the-hobbit-hole.net home page! ^

Posted on 11/03/2004 6:16:42 PM PST by HairOfTheDog

Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!

A new road or a secret gate...

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!

That sequence *alone* should have got it a cinematography Oscar, but noooooo. It wasn't even nominated.

Yep, this one does too...just not ALL of them (I don't know what the difference is, but there you go.) Of course, the one I have is one of the ones they don't take.

Steve took both the boys with him to put gas in the truck. I think I'll run down to the store and do a bit of Christmas shopping real quick.

I did not like that scene. I mean think of those poor poor soldiers suck up top of the mountain, freezing their butts off waiting year after year to light one fire. I surprised anyone was up there paying attention when the signal finally came. And then what? Now they had to go and cut down all that wood again and haul it back up the mountain to rebuild the fire just so they can wait again. I tell ya I felt sorry for them.
