The Hobbit Hole XXXI - Mawwage is what bwings us togethew today!

Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!

Mawwage is what bwings us togethew today!

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!

Hey!! A couple of Free Republic homeschoolers are getting married! Talondj and jenb met in the Hobbit Hole and are getting married tomorrow!

They've been a great encouragement to me over the years I've known them and I thought the Homeschool Ping lists might want in on the congratulations!

We're very glad you're coming, Corin. It means a lot to me that my friends want to attend! Not enough of them can of course but just knowing that is enough.

Good morning Love! What did I miss? Ah! a new thread and everything. And here I thought they were going to go with the 'wander home to bed' line... At the hotel and up. Mike is showering and soon we will be out looking for food and the tux place. I will give you a ring when we are done there. Oh wait, I already gave you one of those. hehehe I need caffeine.

Thanks everyone!
I am so happy to have had the Hobbit Hole and FreePers in general as the virtual chaperones for our courtship. It has been a fun ride. I would say that everyone should pat themself on the back and take this time to reflect on the happy things in their own lives....



but I am way to selfcentered to say that sappy stuff....

"Have you the wing?"

I'm glad it's still early at work, otherwise somebody might have heard me laughing out loud. J

Thanks Dave! The priest had better not show up looking like that.
