Simple Folk

Just look at them, sitting here, bold as brass, like they never run off and made folks wonder.

Just look at them, sitting there, laughing and joking, like they never felt the touch of shadow.

Not a word of explanation, not to anyone. It’s a blessing Will Whitfoot kept Lobelia out of that hole after all.

We couldn’t explain, not that anyone’s asked. At least they didn’t try to auction off Bag End.

Perhaps when they’ve had a pint or two, they’ll find their tongues again.

Perhaps when we’ve had a pint or two, this will feel like home again.
