Passover At Bilbo's House

The plates are ready
and the meal is about to be served
The Heady wine of Dorwinion   
    will be drunk here
Feeling festive 
    the dwarves begin to chant 
       in Hebraic tones
Passover at Bilbo's house
   Perhaps the best questions 
are yet to be asked 
     Gandalf's beard has grown long
     and his bushy eye brow 
stand above 
   his piercing eyes
 A delicous meal 
 and more wine 
as the vening wears on 
    A glorious end 
to a  glorious day 
   as the visitors
head off to Dreamland
      and beyond......
