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!

I'm back! I spent several lovely hours out on the AFB. One of my students gave me a very nice tour of places I had never been there. Got to see lots of planes and places where they maintain them. Went to the NATO (yuck) flight school there. Watched some of the guys flying. It was VEY cool. Wish I could get out there and do that again sometime! :-)

Okay. Hope you catch up soon! I had to leave for a bit to get things ready for my company tonight. I had a 2 year old request the honor of my company this evening! :-)

And now, she is here. We are watching Beauty and the Beast right now. Her brother decided to come with her so we're having a little people evening! :-)
