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!

Yes, Corin, you are ~such~ an angel.

We took this picture yesterday of a big ole starfish on the beach.... I had to save it three times because the tide kept going out more and beaching it again.

Also - riding pictures from today posted Here...

Course I picked it up! They are cool.... underneath, they are a thousand suction cups!

Those many-legged starfish (scientific term ;~D) get really big.

Also known as a "Sun Star" in some circles. Yes, technically that is redundant.

Dang... it's been a while since I've taken any marine biology classes [cough] a really long while. But that sounds like you're actually right.
