The Hobbit Hole XXII - ...Apple, thorn, and nut and sloe
http://freeper.the-hobbit-hole.net/ ^

Posted on 06/01/2005 7:12:04 PM PDT by HairOfTheDog

Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!

...Apple, thorn, and nut and sloe

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!

You can see those in the zoo.

New Zealand has hobbits.

I don't want to see them in a zoo.

And the hobbits in New Zealand have pretty much packed up and moved out.

There ought to be some sort of LOTR anniversary trip to NZ, don't you think?

CO sounds good to me for next year, and then the AK cruise/tour the year after... :D

You've been awful quiet... any news?

Also could you take the smaller bag of chicken out of the freezer for me?

This little beauty in Scotland sleeps 16 and only costs $65,000 a week! And it includes a housekeeper!

For that price, we'd better be allowed to keep the housekeeper..,

At that price, she'd better do more than just clean house.
