The Hobbit Hole XXV - Fare you well! Fare you well!
http://freeper.the-hobbit-hole.net/ ^

Posted on 10/15/2005 7:13:08 AM PDT by HairOfTheDog

Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!

Fare you well! Fare you well!

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!

In the moon-lit prairie night, Freddie took one last tortured breath and died.

...and there was much rejoicing.

Heh, I guess we're all graceful, dignified, and tragic.

Bob FINALLY met The Toaster.

I still don't know exactly WHAT role The Toaster will play, but he's awfully cranky.

I'm currently in an emotionally delicate scene where the evil henchman is finding his heart and helping the semi-villian double-cross the uber-villian. Evil henchman did some mean nasty things in the past and now he's trying to make up for it. Will it be enough? Can he clear his conscience? ...

(Don't worry, he'll be dead by the next chapter...)

I think it was the selection of "Home Brewing" as high art. :-)

But I picked that one! Maybe it was because I'd rather follow Faramir than some fool of a Took.

I picked Faramir too... Hmm... I did it once before and picked slightly different answers and got Rohirrim.

Yah, so there's that.

I've not seen Corin's post yet... wonder why that is... :-)
