The Hobbit Hole VII - But not yet weary are our feet...

Posted on 03/15/2004 1:45:41 PM PST by HairOfTheDog

Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!

But not yet weary are our feet...

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!

Cheesie Poofs are Hella-lame.

You're just hella-hatin' 'cause Cheesie-Poofs are hella-tasty.

I've got the last chicken pot pie!

Well, I wasn't gonna eat it anyway, 'cause I'm on a diet. BTW, my Mom says I'm not fat!--I'm pleasantly plump :)

I didn't know there was a movie version of Mysterious Island. I know I saw a movie version of Around the World in 80 Days, and believe there were several done of 2000 Leagues... to say nothing of the part in League of Extraordinary Gentlemen.

Sigh... I am in anime heaven... have just watched several episodes of Ruruoni Kenshin. Definitely wonderful. Love it.

Are you the one who was telling me about burning dvds? I'd really like to give my little sister a set of these.

Oh, and I'm sick tonight so I have no guilt for vegging out and watching, oh, four hours of lovely anime.

And I'm spaced out on Nyquil, too! Yay for cold medicine, yay for anime, extra yays for kicking-butt-with-loads-of-style anime.

Er. Well. Um. I think I'm calling in sick tomorrow.

Glad you made it back from *town*, Tonto... you gotta stop doin' that. You always get beat up when you go to town.

re: pic... just dang. You'd think she could afford a little dentistry.

And the ones that mother gives you
Don't do anything, at all."

Nope. Too early for that. But there's still time.

Well, if there was a way to get bread, milk, eggs, coffee, ice cream, mushrooms, tomatoes, lettuce, green peppers, green beans, chicken, broccolli, tortilla chips, toilet paper, cheese, butter and such without going to town...

Hey there! I saw the great news about the little one. It's just awesome that he was found and is OK.

I also just saw the bit about the cops letting the mom work out some anxiety from her system in a curiously effective way. It's hard to believe they'd do that. But I'm not tellin'.
