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!

It's one of the best parts. I can't count all the best parts, they're too numerous. But really, having someone who shares all my interests is so wonderful. Even when we don't feel like doing the same thing we are still sympathetic to whatever the other wants to do.

Should I have my post removed?

I appear to be the only one who forgot to heckle...

Isn't that the best part? Someone just to pal around with you.

It is certainly something which you miss all the more when you have lost it, I can tell you! -- :(

Maybe this isn't an appropriate question for the HH thread but it is a piece of history.

does anyone here remember were they were 44 years ago today? (Nov. 22)

I wasn't born yet either, but I know what happened... (The JFK assassination. But it was in 1963, so wouldn't that make it 43 years?)

LOL!

That would be difficult!

(Wish I could say that)

unfortunately I was a month away from turning 7. so I do remember it vaguely, this day in history was a sad day for the US as President Kennedy was shot and killed in Dallas, TX Nov. 22, 1963.

Ah - thanks trivia buffs for the answer.

I was never good with dates. Made it hard for me to get good grades on history tests. :~) I'm OK with ideas, trends, events... just not when they happened :~)

Do you mean 43 yrs. ago, on Nov. 22, 1963? I was in 4th grade, when the Assoc. Pastor walked into class and told us that President Kennedy had been shot. I didn't find out until many years later that both Aldous Huxley and C.S. Lewis also died on that day.
