The Hobbit Hole XXIX - Until the stars are all alight...
http://freeper.the-hobbit-hole.net/ ^

Posted on 04/20/2006 2:10:46 PM PDT by HairOfTheDog

Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!

Until the stars are all alight

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!

Thank you Hair! Have been out playing in my own garden...complete with surprise grubs, guerilla fireants and dirt flung into the hair.

in the middle of prepping for a play - I have a part in "Bus Stop" and homeschooling is...well, it IS. LOL - am having her tested for levels in a month. Will be checking in later!

Of course you're all in plain sight, once one gets into the front parlour.

It's the trek up Bagshot Row, pausing now again to check the map, that's the mischief.

I'll just put this box of mathoms in the Birthday Corner...

Yeah, New Zealand could made a bundle by creating a place that's kinda like Hobbiton and Rivendell. So many fans want to travel there to see the sights.

Our #1 son went to Australia and New Zealand with friends over the Christmas vacation. He said he thought he saw the mountains that appear in some of the scenes, specifically those when the folks are moving to Helm's Deep in TTT.

I sure wish they had left some of the sets behind for fans to enjoy.

~sigh~
