Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!
...Pass them by! Pass them by!
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! |

Derned Global Warming!
The weather guy on the Rush'n'Sean station's morning show remarked this morning that Wednesday is the Official First Day of Autumn. The news guy said (quite accurately) "We just didn't have a summer this year."
Funny that.
Seems the only people talking about Global Warming are the lefty whacks calling people like me stupid for even suggesting it might not be happening.
Oh well.

I cracked the whip and had Spiderboy whitewashing a fence for Aunt Polly.
It weren't purty.
The dog got involved too.

You can say that again! Well, we had summer in Colorado, on and off, but it's cold now. That's not unusual, I understand, and we'll probably get more warm days before the fall's out.

Ramadi delende est... Agreed. I've come around lately to the school of thought that thinks an example needs be made and that little else will actually get traction.
To: RMDupree
Correct, LOL!
