A Hobbit's Adventure

'Take me away....let me stand beside the waves in the brisk wind - wetted with spray, wrapped in the morning mist of the bay, to the forgotten strands of a strange and new land, in the twilight beyond the deep roaring waters...'

from A Hobbit's Journal - The Song Of The Sea

It is said by the Elves that in the water still lives the echoes of The Music of the Ainur which created the world at the beginning of time - this is why Elves love to be by the sea and listen to its song. How can I describe the beauty of the song of the sea? Can simple hobbit words ever be enough?

Pirates do many naughty things, one of which is to abduct chickens ( which is really a terrible crime ) ..so I said, ' well I go and find these chickens...this is an outrage! !'

I met with one pirate, a chief or sumething, called Jajabelly or  was it Jajax ? ( why do tall people always have to chose such complicated names ? ) . To be fair to him, I am not quite sure he is as bad as the locals think he is...

I knew I could not stay, that I had to go soon, but for that night all my adventure  was forgotten, and I became just a simple folk from Gondor enjoying the stars and old tales filled with hope about the return of a King one day...

From somewhere the gentle sound of a harp and a flute, a lullaby from Gondor ..yes, I do like it here...a lot. I felt my heart fill with joy and, and my eye swell with happy tears...some time I wish I could share all this beauty...

Lovers in the moonlight standing there, making promises of everlasting love under the stars of Gondor...There are love and kindness in this land

'Welcome to Western Gondor, hobbit!' one of the men said. Well I say, I never though the sky can look so blue and the air can smell so wonderful...

As if by magic, the rain stopped the very moment my feet were once again on the green grass of my beloved homeland. The late afternoon sky opened up like a painting of beautiful colors and a rainbow appeared , stretching joyfully above rolling hills..'Well, I am home!'

The local 'swimming pool' ( or was a fountain ? ) is very refreshing and clean...with lovely water lilies and golden leaves floating in the water. Been a small hobbit under the huge trees made me think about how lovely it is to be small and to be a 'real' hobbit.
