Turn of the year
Bilbo’s walking song (as he is leaving Bag End, in “Fellowship of the Ring”) seems somehow appropriate:
| The Road goes ever on and on Down from the door where it began. Now far ahead the Road has gone, And I must follow, if I can, Pursuing it with eager feet, Until it joins some larger way Where many paths and errands meet. And whither then? I cannot say. |
