The Hobbit Hole XXVI - Home is behind, the world ahead

Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!
Home is behind, the world ahead
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! |

Oh please, dear God, no!
Do you have any idea how long it took to get his version of "She Bangs" out of my head!?

*shudder*
I'm going to go watch the original YATTA video again, just to purge all of this evil from my mind.

That doesn't exactly strike me as *cleansing*, but whatever you say... ;-)

In light of what's been linked in the last dozen posts, it is.

Speaking of which, Frodo and company just left Frodo's hosue in Brandybuck. I got that far at the hospital today. I'm amazed at how many details I'd forgotten.
I'm signing off and won't be back on in the a.m.
See y'all when I wake up. Unless of course I wake up and this has all been a dream...

Maybe that old "hatt baby" one... with Maggie Thatcher and the giant bunny.

Man...been a long time since I last saw that.
To: RMDupree
And...that's about all I have to say about that!
To: RMDupree
Not - it was a later one... Son of Hatten-ar-din (the link I used to have is bad - and it had Margarette Thatcher and a giant rabbit.
