The Hobbit Hole XVIII - Though we pass them by today...
The Freeper Hobbit Hole ^

Posted on 12/20/2004 9:01:36 AM PST by ecurbh

Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!

Though we pass them by today...

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!

Last words are last words... it's not the sort of thing that you can control. Sorta like how the last two words ever heard on a cockpit voice recorder are, invariably: "Oh... sh##."

Just gotta learn to live with it. :-)

My philosophy is, if I ain't ready when He gets back, it's not gonna matter much how and when he does it.

Happy birthday, Ruthy!!!

Hey Hair, I think we should give the boarding thread a bump now and then and just let it lie...then, I'll get some updates from the boarder and maybe you could ping your lists again for the updates?

I don't wanna harrass people...but an update might interest them, and remind some others that, Oh...they wanted to give but didn't get around to it!
