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!

...OK, his last post *is* kinda ticking me off. That's me he's supposedly describing. What the...? Is he intentionally that dense?

But anyhoo...guess I'll just go read for a bit.

Apparently even just having an apartment and a vehicle at all is feminist. I've never had a place that cost more than about $500 a month or a car worth much of anything...but that's materialistic and unfeminine.

I really don't understand what he *does* think makes a good woman. Honestly. :-\

And the two screenname thing still bugs me. Not that it's any of my business, but...

OK, *now* I'm gonna go read. I sooooo want to respond, but it won't do me any good, will it?

I think the name thing is just coincidence. Two different posters.

I'm still soooo tempted. At least to answer the criticisms he's made. I'm far from wealthy, and that isn't a life goal. And I'm not exactly running away from my kids, since I don't even have 'em. And I'd give up what little I do have with regards to career and that in a heartbeat if I met the right person and was going to start a family.

So...it's kinda painful to be accused.

I'm a sissy, I guess.

On the bright side, I had a piece of dark chocolate. I'm a lush, in addition to my other bad qualities...

Anyone who reads your post can see you are anything ~but~ the right target for that kind of response. Just about any other woman on the thread, myself included, might have been a more appropriate target.

Blame Jr. He just got home from work. If his Mom was here she'd be waiting up.

You're a lot better at getting at the heart of the matter in a few words than I am. ;-)

Well, it's been over an hour and he still hasn't replied. Guess we stumped him :-)

OB's finally home so I'm logging off. It's been fun!!
