The Hobbit Hole XXX - Then world behind and home ahead...
http://freeper.the-hobbit-hole.net/ ^

Posted on 06/28/2006 10:14:11 AM PDT by HairOfTheDog

Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!

Then world behind and home ahead

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!

There's a bunny in muh beans. I was out picking and saw a little brown blur of fur scoot out of the way. *sigh* At least he doesn't like beans.

i shoulda planted more beans....I had forgotten how good home-grown beans tasted.

My tomatoes appear undisturbed since I dumped a load of bloodmeal on 'em. I've got eggplant coming and some peppers. One of my zucchinis look like it's got the vine borers.

*Sigh* I need to plant better next year and have my planting beds ready before planting season.

Meanwhile....where should I try planting turnips and collards for the fall?

Uh, no...

Hehehe!

I also didn't mention that the phonics kit (that I'm currently selling for about 40 bucks) has a TE in it.

My maters need dirt. At least...I think they do. They look *great* (I'm going to have more tomatoes than I know what to do with), but the bottom leaves on the cherry tomato plant are yellowing a little. Maybe it's nothing.

And my mesclun bolted. Guess I gotta start over...though it may be too hot now for lettucy type things, I suppose.

On the bright side, though the tabasco pepper plant still hasn't grown since I got it, the Anaheim peppers have buds. Woo-hoo!

I was confused, wasn't I... I thought he was the guy who went to Nepal.

I'm happy this morning! I finally ordered a laptop battery Thursday... paid dell for fast shipping and then they said it wouldn't ship until Tuesday. I was ticked. But I just got it. Yay! Now I can actually use my laptop again, the setup has been awful all summer.

Well he may have gone to Nepal, but you're thinking of "Brother Cloud."

Still, Rick Warren prolly loves the Beatles.
