The Hobbit Hole XXIV - Sand and Stone and Pool and Dell...
Please see our Hobbit Hole Troop Support project blog! ^

Posted on 08/24/2005 9:50:25 PM PDT by HairOfTheDog

Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!

Sand and Stone and Pool and Dell...

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 got it...pretty cool book cover, anyway.

Not sure it's my genre, but if all books were, it would be an awfully boring world :)

OK...

A lot.

Bunches.

Good people all over the place.

Good humor, and mostly clean, and the naughty bits aren't, really.

Is Serenity a movie you have to be familiar with the TV show to get? Or can a newbie pretty much fall in for it?

Well, Jen and Rosie liked "Serenity" a lot, and neither one had seen the series previously.

Rose and I had seen the series when it originally ran on Fox a few years ago. It's also available on DVD, as well as the old episodes being broadcast now on SciFi.
