The Hobbit Hole XVI - Still round the corner there may wait...
See our freeper.the-hobbit-hole.net home page! ^

Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!

Still round the corner there may wait...

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!

Hey does anyone know what the score of the Cardinals vs. Astros game is? We have family here and are not able to see the game.

Thanks, Mrsnad

It's currently tied at ZERO! LOL!

Bottom of the ninth, no outs...Astros up to bat.

hehehehe...you ain't kidding. I see the bleary-eyed fellas at work and that's more than enough warning to avoid those games!

Me neither.

But I'll be the first to admit that sports hold no great interest to me, outside of the occassional well-matched football game.

Nothing like a baseball game. But not on tv. One must be there.

Otherwise, sports can die out for all of me.

It's true. Baseball is MUCH better in person.

However, I do think football is better on TV, although many folks disagree with me.

At least, until I mention how much cheaper the beer is when you stay home. Then I win the argument. :-D

As my dad always said... baseball is like sex. It's simply much more fun to do than it is to watch.
