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!

When I sign on here there is the screen name SteelWolf on the screen. I'm assuming he/she signed on before me is why. How do I get a message to him/her letting them know I am at the same camp?

Send a Private Reply (FReepmail) to any post and insert the name STEELWOLF instead. The next time he logs on, your message will be waiting for him.

She probably is.....
So I will tell the story

Okay the young twirpy looking cowboy that sat beside MBY was TOO funny. He thought for sure he was a lit’l player! He came into the rodeo earlier in the evening with two other young girls. The three of them sat up in front of us about 4 or 5 rows up. Well once the concert started and we started partying, he left those two, I guess to “use the bathroom”. However, we he walked pass our group and saw the good time we were all having and the 4 very cute young girls sitting beside us he just proceeded to hop over that wall and plant his bottom right between the 7 of us and join the party. Nevertheless, that isn’t the real funny part….

You think anyone is listening??? or did everybody leave.....

Anyway, the funny part was once the concert was almost over the two girls up front finally realized their cowboy had not returned "from the bathroom" so they got up to look for him. You should have seen the look on their faces when low and behold they walked past us and there he was partying it up in the midst of 7 other ladies! Those girls were 'bout to get catty when the isle "hall" monitor pops over there to make those girls go back to their seats! And the twirpy cowboy stayed right were he was!!!

You told it just great!! I was so into the Dwight/Marty performance I missed what all was going on. And just wished the 2 who were mad at him would go away. They kept blocking my view. and distracting me with their whining. lol
