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!

Elephants Go Bouncing Down Freeways" for the lines on a treble staff,

LOL!! I learned it as "Every Good Boy Does Fine". I STILL say that to myself when I'm looking at music!

Just a quick note to folks here, in case I don't show up too often for the next few days.

I heard this morning from my brother. His wife died early today from a massive heart attack. She was in her late 50s, and it was totally unexpected. She leaves behind my brother, and her 17-year-old stepson, along with children and grandchildren of her own.

Prayers for the family will be gratefully appreciated.

Hey...I just got in from the thrift store...found a nice ceramic coffee mug. It has a artisic picture of a space shuttle circling the globe...says "Discovery", then it has the names of the crew...Seddon, Griggs, Hoffman, Walker, Bobko, Williams, Garn. Then it has all their signatures.

Pretty cool mug! No chips...color is good. Paid 29 cents for it!
