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!

Working fine. Looks like you just moved it (it was showing the tops of trees there for a minute) but now it seems to be pointing right down the fence line and both horses are in range . . .

Yeah - they aren't at the best angle anymore, so I moved the camera. They are over in the corner of the yard that is hard to see anyhow, but this is only a test, the content could be anything. If they move out of range, I'll send ecurbh out to entertain ya!

I just tried it and it says it's offline--guess that means it's working! :)

Yes! And I was gonna do it tonight, honest!

*sigh*

But now I'm all the more determined to spend this weekend prettying it up out there...planting and trimming and such.

The fact that it is 'not working now' means 'not working' is working! ;~D
