The Hobbit Hole VIII - Still round the corner we may meet...

Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!

Still round the corner we may meet...

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!

Well, the bad storm passed north of me. But, there's some more out about 50 miles headed this way too.

And you keep finding us anyway!

We went riding today.... and I even worked that pony of mine on long lines. We are having a nice spring.... if I may say so, we aren't getting enough rain.

Oh, our choir was exhausting too, had to practice for Thursday and Sunday. I think we'll do ok.

I really need to get to bed earlier, I just haven't adjusted to the time change yet.

Hey, when are you coming down for your son's graduation?

Well, criminy, now there's a hail producing-high wind storm headed right smack for us. I gotta go move my pickup under the carport.

I'm too tired to sneak. My resolution for this hole is to cut back on the sneaking by, oh, at least 2%.
