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!

Ha! You think havin' all us gals at *your* place is gonna keep us from being in a party mood?

How's this for a playlist? I ain't as refined as ecurbh though.

1. Gretchen Wilson - Here for the Party
2. Toby Keith - Whiskey Girl
3. Gretchen Wilson - Redneck Woman
4. Big & Rich - Save a Horse, Ride a Cowboy

and of course, no Hobbit Hole bachelorette party would be complete without PIRATES... so...

5. Pirates of the Mississippi - Redneck Rock N' Roll

:-)

I'm finally back!! Had a long chat, so now I'm tired. LOL!!

I saw the playlist and I'm so happy that Fly Me To The Moon is on there. I love Big Band music and that song is a particular favorite. :-)

I'm still here!

Ramius is having FR trouble again! :-(

Perhaps he's lurking though. We could make faces at him! And taunt him unceasingly! :-)

On second thought, I think we very well may meet up first in Gig Harbor, so that we can all hang with together with the guys... Scott and Ramius and ecurbh, before heading down here... I just won't want to be up anywhere near what would be called late. So we should come back here in time to settle down early. I think it will be in my favor that you guys are coming from a later time zone. ;~D

I really don't want to be tired, and certainly not hungover at my wedding.

If'n you love Big Band music, you'll have to check out my MP3 collection while you're here (currently clocking in at 53GB). I have just about everything Sinatra ever recorded. Also lots of Mel Torme. And some Bobby Darin and Vic Damone. And Buddy Rich, Stan Kenton, Les Brown, Doc Severinson...

We don't want you tired and we especially don't want you hung over so we will follow your lead. I am sure I speak for the other Hobbit Hole gals in that. We want your day to be the best so getting to bed early will be a priority.

Trouble is, do you think we'll ever be able to go to sleep that night! We'll all be supercharged on adrenaline!

No worries, chica! We'll all be Mother Hen-ing you to death....making sure you get plenty of sleep, etc.

And yes, I do believe the time difference will mean that I will be a walking zombie the better part of the evening. :-)

How about...

Would you like to swing on a star?
Carry moonbeams home in a jar?
And be better off than you are
Or would you rather be a fish? *grin*

I love those tunes, they are so much fun.

Hair thinks the lyrics are too corny, though. :(

When you got to go to bed Ruthy - you just gotta go. Don't want to mess with your schedule either!

I will either be hyper because of all the excitement and visitors, or I will be catatonic from the sensory overload of that whole week!

Heaven, I’m in heaven
And my heart beats so that I can hardly speak
And I seem to find the happiness I seek
When we’re out together dancing cheek to cheek

Heaven, I’m in heaven
And the cares that hung around me through the week
Seem to vanish like a gambler’s lucky streak
When we’re out together dancing (swinging) cheek to cheek

Oh I love to climb a mountain
And reach the highest peak
But it doesn’t thrill (boot) me half as much
As dancing cheek to cheek

Oh I love to go out fishing
In a river or a creek
But I don’t enjoy it half as much
As dancing cheek to cheek

(come on and) dance with me
I want my arm(s) about you
That (those) charm(s) about you
Will carry me through...

(right up) to heaven, I’m in heaven
And my heart beats so that I can hardly speak
And I seem to find the happiness I seek
When we’re out together dancing, out together dancing (swinging)
Out together dancing cheek to cheek
