The Hobbit Hole XIX - Tomorrow we may come this way...
The Freeper Hobbit Hole ^

Posted on 01/27/2005 9:59:05 AM PST by ecurbh

Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!

Tomorrow we may come this way...

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!

Well, judging from the instincts of the HHers that answered here, I bet he got a lot of them.

Kinda hope so. Be nice if I weren't the only clueless one...

Considering it's likely most of the applicants are guys, I'm guessin' not many others are reading the intructions either... :-P

My cat watched the whole thing intently all the way through, purring.

I guess she's as weird as I am.

Cleo's the one who likes Badger Badger. She's the 'puter cat. Always stays nearby, though she knows she's not actually allowed on the keyboard...

Dad has a friend at work that would likely take her if there was no other way. Just wish she wasn't being extra clingy all of a sudden. Or maybe it's just my overly sensitive perspective.

She HATES this guy...

Homer doesn't understand it at all, he just howls.

I don't blame her, that guy makes me bark too.

How's Homer fitting in otherwise? Still getting along ok?
