The Hobbit Hole XVII - A new road or a secret gate...

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!

Labs are dogs. Anything else is just a placeholder for where a dog should be. OK... maybe border collies are dogs too... but little else.

To whit: gidget. A thing that looks and acts like a dog, but is completely insane.

Yah. OK.

The dog is still broken. Broke. Damaged goods. Throwing memory dump errors. Bad source code. :-)

Oh, nuts... I only heard about this guy today. If ever there was somebody worthy of the CMOH, its this guy. Its just too damn bad so many, like this, are posthumus:
