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!

I dunno, Fedora. Sounds like I'm alphabetically challenged!

"Tell me, then, what state is high in the middle and round at both ends?"

"I don't know: what state is high in the middle and round at both ends?"

"Ohio: O-HI-O! That's a joke son, ya get it? Yuk-yuk-yuk!"

I think I broke the link by posting the pic :) It'll probably come back later (elsehwere the site says, "Q. Whats wrong with the animated gifs? They don't seem to work. A. Its because geocities imposes a bandwidth limit, and whenever that limit is reached, they shut the page off. Hence, you can sometimes see the GIFs and sometimes you cant. If it doesnt work, then try again a few hours later. But trust us when we say that they work."). The main page of the site has links to a lot of neat stuff:

Tricks 'n Flips

I was going to buy an instructional video with a lot of this on it for $50 but now I see it's online free, LOL!

Can't be the origin, no way "Battle of the Planets" was pre-1940s.

Hi, goodbye, it's been a long day. Went to the bookstore, they didn't have any of the things I was looking for. About ready for bed. Yawn.

I grew up with Pina Colada scented suntan oil before I knew the drink.... so I can never get over the idea that I am drinkin suntan lotion. I just can't drink it from the smell!

Maybe the Battle of the Planets people sent Kivrin back to the 1940s? :)

Have a good night, Jen! The final episode of Angel is over now so I'm about to start the last Kenshin disc. . .

*smooch*

So, now Ruthy and I don't *have* to rent a car? You're letting us use *your* car!!! Yea!!!

Okay, I promise, I'll drive. I'll make Ruthy use that blindfold and I'll do all the driving! :-D

[sigh] Just try not to take it over sixty in first, OK?

Honey, if you let me use you're car, I promise I won't have it in first gear long enough to get it up to 60. Won't be in 2nd, 3rd or 4th too long either! :-)

Thank you Thank you Thank you!!! :-)

Drinks should not have names. If it ain't straight-up it's not a drink. It's a dessert.

Oh, shoot, I missed it. Did any "special guest stars" make an appearance?

Ecurbh, on your tagline:

"Elen síla lúmenn' omentielvo"

Doesn't that translate, "A star shines on the hour of our omlet"? :)
