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!

Stay here! Avoid the religion wars! It is safe here, like a hobbit hole is supposed to be.

Besides, quite frankly nobody over there listens to anyone else.

Only about a week and a half until Corin ought to be back.

And if he doesn't come back, we need to show up at his house with torches and pitchforks.

He'll be back after Easter. He gave us up for Lent.

I am currently looking for an article to post over "there." It'll probably have to wait until tonight since lunchtime is just about over.

Sonya is coming over to see and maybe go shop for some more flowers, so I curled my hair and put on the headpiece.

My hair will curl better when all the dead ends are cut off and it is layered. Might buy a smaller curling iron.
