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!

They are a little loose on my face...stretched-out feeling...I guess I could get them adjusted?

Run them under hot water and bend the ear pieces in... Hold them there till it cools.... fixed ;~D

Never heard of 'em! They look cool - flip-flops with a seat belt.

It was kinda weird, how nobody thought anything of it...and this was back in the mid-seventies...when I was in junior high/high school. That was just their name. And it's what we called them Chuck Taylors, Vans, Tiddies.

Sounds like we should be sending them to JFK, huh?

I'd like a pair...not now, maybe next year.

Speaking of next year...

Steve speaks to his advisor today...he MAY get to take one of his thesis classes this summer. If so, that will just leave 2 classes and one thesis class till he's done!

My mom used to call flip-flops "go-aheads" cuz you can't back up in them... These tiddies, you could back up in!

You want us to try it and leave it running for a while, right?

Are the dark blurs horses?

I think it's a fair assumption that Hair and ecurbh will be otherwise occupied...no wireless hot spots on the beach...probably not a good idea to set a lap top up by all that beer...it may require an after-action report.

Sure, leave it running just to see if any troubles crop up. No, the horses aren't in view at all at the moment.... When they are, they're more obvious.

Well, Scott's right. You'll be a little busy. We'll just expect someone to show up and give us a report during the reception.

No unfortunately - I think sound is a whole 'nother level of complicated.

You'll just have to imagine the pastor saying: "Mawwaige, is what bwings us togethew today... The bwessed awwangement, that dweam wiffin a dweam"

I figger we can have Ramius's laptop logged in as "Entmoot" hanging around somewhere. And maybe the desktop computer inside too.
