The Hobbit Hole XXII - ...Apple, thorn, and nut and sloe
http://freeper.the-hobbit-hole.net/ ^

Posted on 06/01/2005 7:12:04 PM PDT by HairOfTheDog

Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!

...Apple, thorn, and nut and sloe

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!

Read #8 last nite. Stayed up a bit late, but finished it. (they're short and fast paced) The story struck a few emotional chords that troubled my dreams. Needless to say I'm a bit sleepy today.

Oh well. It was worth it!

Oh well, I had Genuine Indian Food cooked by a Genuine Indian, so it's ok.

Did he have feathers on his head? A tomahawk? Did he own a casino? How can you be sure he was Genuine?

Mornin'

Catching up on the London news.

We have friends who were on their way to Paris. They were stopping in London to see her sister yesterday.

I've been kindof following this since about 4 am, the first time I woke up. At that time, I was thinking it was large, structurally damaging explosions in the subway, where we were going to have lots of dead, and this doesn't look quite that bad. The footage on board one of the trains shows the train still together. Stoopid suicide bombers maybe even.

Still though.

I worry, though, that they'll cave like the Spanish. I hope not. Oh I hope not.

I saw Blair speak.... I know he has to fight for hearts and mind at home, but he's tough. I don't think he'll cave.
