The Hobbit Hole VII - But not yet weary are our feet...

Posted on 03/15/2004 1:45:41 PM PST by HairOfTheDog

Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!

But not yet weary are our feet...

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!

Jen will try not to do it again.

At least not until 500, or 1000.

I hope to be here Wednesday so we can watch it together.

I'll be here! BTW, I started watching another Stephen King movie, Hearts in Atlantis, over the weekend. Watched about half of it yesterday, will probably watch the rest tomorrow.

Good evening, wow, y'all moved again; on the other hand, easier than sweeping up the wood shavings 'round the bench.

Sounds like a really good moot, the pics posted thus far were great.

And you distracted me from the Precious by sending me a critique at the same time--very clever. . .I must begin plotting my strategy for Post #1000 soon. . .

You could come help me unpack! After leaving the motel in Houston everything I had ended up mixed up between 4 bags! I had so many birthday things that I just shoved things in bags as best I could... got to Cheryl and Lynn's and couldn't find anything! But, had a blast. Was thinking I would unpack after freeping for a while.... unless you send me into time out now searching for the camera!

I saw that movie, but for the life of me, I can't remember what happened in it. I only remember that Anthony Hopkins starred. :-)

2J still hasn't checked in - do you know when she was due to be back?

Hope you're having a great birthday, 2J!
