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!

You know we've never had an actual Hobbit Holer visit in the picture, though? I think a wedding pic of some sort would be a VEY cool way to start!

It was the stupid slow computer's fault, not mine. Well, sort of not mine.

Double posts your first time in the new hole? Have you been at the Gaffer's home brew?

Maybe a small repeating video, like Laurie Dhue's lips.

If we have to start new threads for size restrictions, then I vote ~Spam~ should be definately PROHIBITED and grounds for shunning and gnashing of teeth.

Only in my dreams, sadly, Miss Rosie. I haven't had a drop since Friday. Yikes!
