Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!
A sudden tree or standing stone
New verse:
|
Upon the hearth the fire is red,
Beneath the roof there is a bed;
But not yet weary are our feet,
Still round the corner we may meet
A sudden tree or standing stone
That none have seen but we alone.
Tree and flower and leaf and grass,
Let them pass! Let them pass!
Hill and water under sky,
Pass them by! Pass them by! |
Still round the corner there may wait
A new road or a secret gate,
And though we pass them by today,
Tomorrow we may come this way
And take the hidden paths that run
Towards the Moon or to the Sun.
Apple, thorn, and nut and sloe,
Let them go! Let them go!
Sand and stone and pool and dell,
Fare you well! Fare you well! |
Home is behind, the world ahead,
And there are many paths to tread
Through shadows to the edge of night,
Until the stars are all alight.
Then world behind and home ahead,
We’ll wander back to home and bed.
Mist and twilight, cloud and shade,
Away shall fade! Away shall fade!
Fire and lamp, and meat and bread,
And then to bed! And then to bed! |

Um, my uncool sister is suddenly demanding to watch Kenshin and stealing my Ranma manga. All I did was play my anime song cd for her... and go on about how lovely they are, and show her pictures from Kenshin, etcetera. Maybe I can make money off of this.Yes, I think the Kenshin people could hire you as a marketing consultant! So far you've converted your sisters and me, that I know of. Hmm--are you sure you're not an agent of the Imperialists or something? :)
Oops, gotta do more family stuff - hopefully back before bedtime.
Okay. When you get done with the family stuff tell me some more about your new manga ideas! I'm getting some new ideas from reading this book on samurai history; I'll tell you about that later.

Gidget and I just got back from our walk, went 4 times around the pasture. Of course, she had to dragged along for the last two laps.
And I picked up your package at the store... it was delivered yesterday, and they forgot to tell us.
~smooch~

Happy Mother's Day, Hobbit Hole!
I had a really crazy, hectic day which started with church and ended with an old high school buddy of mine who hung around until I kicked him out at 9:30!!
I wanted to go by trini's house today and lounge by the pool, but it seemed like everything worked against me today...*cough* family *cough*
I hope everyone had a terrific day, moms and otherwise!
Corin - I'm praying for Nana...
Hair - so heart-saddened to hear about #6. *snif* No matter how long you have them and no matter how old they get, it's always sad to see them go. (((HAIR)))

Hi, Ruthy! Glad you managed to survive your hectic day and make it back to the Hobbit Hole--and I hope that teaches you not to go off on any more adventures! Make you late for dinner, you know.

'Evening. I got some of the plants potted today....watching the end of The Wrath of Khan Spock is kicking the bucket. Laundry is going....cat is snoozing...and I think I'll make some tea.
To: ecurbh
Package... hmmm... is it the slip?
So is Gidget 'xhausted on the couch now?
What are you doin' with the horses tonight? Leaving them out? - It's sunny here. If you dont feel comfortable getting blanket on pony outside, I think they'd be fine without them, in or out.
