The Hobbit Hole IX - A sudden tree or standing stone
See our freeper.the-hobbit-hole.net home page! ^ ^

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!

There are two good reasons to watch Steel Magnolias...

Oh, but not Starship Troopers... that movie was a travesty.

IMHO.

It wasn't as good as the book. Still a lotta violence, though, which is why I nominated it :)

I listen to him spouting off and keep my lips clamped together because I don't want to tell my elders that they're idiots.

Why not? Age does not necessarily bring wisdom, just look at Jimmy Carter!

Msdrby and Kidlette are home! We all came home about 2 hours ago, and have been settling in.

The animals are very curious. The look on Chelsea's face when Kidlette cried the first time was priceless. Until that point, the dog seemed to have no idea that something was new.

Hey, all right! Welcome home, so to speak!

The look on Chelsea's face when Kidlette cried the first time was priceless.

Did Chelsea freak out? I've seen dogs do that when a baby cries... they know something is wrong but don't know how to fix it.

There's so much wrong with that movie... I could be here all night detailing the wrongness...

All IMHO, naturally.

Complete bafflement most describes it. Ears perked, tail quit wagging, then she starting looking for the source.

Msdrby and is asleep with Kidlette sleeping on her chest. Very precious. I hope I can remember a tenth of this stuff.

Weird, one would think Chelsea would have smelled the Kidlette before she heard her...

I hope I can remember a tenth of this stuff.

Take pictures! Better yet, get a video camera. ;)
