Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!
...Hill and water under sky
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 truly believe that Jesus had a terrific sense of humor. And (undoubtedly) a sharp wit.

Well, finer points of the Wesleyan-Holiness tradition aside...
One of our favorite moments in our Easter production (when we do it) is when Peter is telling the story of the wedding at Cana. He's talking about the wedding and the celebration. People are talking laughing and dancing (this is a cast of more than 100 people).
Then Peter says "the wine ran out..."
The music stops and in unison the cast turns and looks at Peter, "The WINE ran OUT??????"

But everyone knows Jesus turned the water into non-alcoholic grape-juice... right... and about twenty-plus casks (read: pony kegs) of it. Now *that* is a party.
For his first miraculous act, they sent him on a beer run. This is somebody I can believe in. :-)

The part that's a little tricky is that his mom's the one who asked for the alcohol. How many mothers do that?

How many mothers do that? A mom who's catering a wedding party, runs short of wine, and has a son that can do a really neat trick with a jug of water... that's who. :-)

Jen...you've joined the late night crowd...
G'nite folks.
To: HairOfTheDog
Thanks, that is really funny.
I notice that that guy's posts continue in a similar frenetic sort of vein.
Not that I know what frenetic means.
So we can shoot rifles at g'nad's house.
Wonder if 300winmag will bring his Stradivarius.

Not that I know what frenetic means. But it ~is~ fun to use in a sentence.
So we can shoot rifles at g'nad's house.
Bring ~all~ the guns, if you can't decide on just one. ;~D
To: HairOfTheDog
We need guns. Lots of guns.
