There and Back Again

nag-booksale ako last week tapos nakita ko to. di ko na sana bibilhin kasi tutal naman alam ko na yung plot. naadik ako masyado sa middle earth nung bata ako. pero ngayon binabasa ko na siya at naisip ko, marami pala akong mamimiss pag hindi ko to nabasa. buti na lang. mahal kita booksale haha.

What has roots as nobody sees,
Is taller than trees,
     Up, up it goes,
     And yet never grows?

"Easy!" said Bilbo. "Mountain, I suppose."

Voiceless it cries,
Wingless flutters,
Toothless bites,
Mouthless mutters.

..."Wind, wind of course,"

It cannot be seen, cannot be felt,
Cannot be heard, cannot be smelt.
It lies behind stars and under hills,
        And empty holes it fills.
It comes first and follows after,
        Ends life, kills laughter.

"Dark!" he said without even scratching his head...

personal favorite:

This thing all things devours:
Birds, beasts, trees, flowers;
Gnaws iron, bites steel;
Grinds hard stones to meal;
Slays king, ruins town,
And beats high mountain down.

alam mo ba yung sagot? hehe.
