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

Posted on 05/05/2004 7:57:51 AM PDT by HairOfTheDog

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!

Rose doesn't like to wear skirts does she?

She does sometimes! She wore one to our wedding, actually.

Guys, you are going to be spending a day on sand.... Wear what you would wear to the beach on vacation and be comfortable in. Our weather might be sunny and 70, it won't rain because I am not that unlucky. Tennis shoes, or sandals, or barefeets. ;~D No heels.

I'm plannin' to wear that dress I showed ya that goes with your colors. But, I'm bringin' some shorts to change into if I want to later. 'Cause I'm kinda more of a shorts person if it's warm enough.

Oh...I wish it was asking for things, instead I'm cutting staff. I have two exercises: to reduce by 10% and 20% -- and that means letting people go.

And of course I forgot to save everything I've done in the last hour and now have to do it all over again.

This job WILL be the death of me yet.

Goodnight everyone.

Pleasant dreams! :-)
