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!

Welcome home. Take it easy.

Wife did a five mile walk for the crisis pregnancy center just four weeks after Jr. was born. (it was an emergency c-section and she was pretty sick).

don't recommend doing that.

Cuz we wanted to. And it's Friday. And a nice day.

He was happy about it. It's warm and sunny out. He eventually called us with his cell phone and made us let him in.

Hi Ruthy!

Gettin' ready to leave. Assumin' all is clear in the neighborhood gonna work in the yard tonite and tomorrow. Think I'll wait to mow however until all of the authorities are gone. Don't want to startle them with any loud noises.

BTW Ruthy...I found my copy of "The Fellowship EE" That's the one I had loaned to a co-worker. Apparently it's "The Two Towers" I can't locate (I'm guessing Jr's room...)

FIVE helicopters have flown over my house today! No circling, but right over where the windows shake!
