The Hobbit Hole XIII - Let them pass! Let them pass!
See our freeper.the-hobbit-hole.net home page! ^

Posted on 07/13/2004 9:49:23 AM PDT by HairOfTheDog

Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!

...Let them pass! Let them pass!
(Note to dwarves, this is only meant figuratively)

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!

Have you watched Pt. 1 lately? I'd be up for that sometime--but we'd have to start at the same time, LOL!

I watched it last weekend.

Suzi, you're in my thoughts and prayers. I know this wasn't unexpected. I also know it's not easy.

Go be with your family. We'll hold the fort down for you.

You're all in my prayers. I know what it's like to lose a parent...even if you're expecting it, I'd say it's a hurt that can never completely heal - in this world.

Good morning!

Got a full day of training today - project management. Did I mention I don't like being in charge of ANYTHING? So this should be...interesting. I get the impression they'll do a lot of dividing us into little groups for discussion and project management exercises. Goody.

I just logged in this morning to find the Hole a little more subdued that usual...

Wneighbor, I'm so sorry to hear about your friend's stroke! They have come a long way in stroke treatment and I pray your friend will recover fully!

Suzi, bless your heart...I want to thank you for including me (and the rest of the Hole) in this journey you have taken with your mom over the past couple of years. We've known for a long time that this day was coming, and I'm just so honored to know you, to watch how you and your family treated your mom with such dignity, and to be able to pray for your peace and praise God for her homecoming. I'm proud to know you and will continue to keep you in my prayers.

Good morning. Today I'm actually worse. I can't really speak because my throat's so sore. It'd better improve by 11, I have to call the guy at my school...

Hmm, that might work. Right now, I'm drinking a soda - I dislike hot beverages, and the bubbles feel really good.

Good morning!

2J - How wonderful that you've heard from her! I still regret missing that flight, but if I had been there, the soldier wouldn't have sat next to you both! LOL!!

WN - Praying for Benny and for your safe trip to be by his side.

SuziQ - I'm sending you all my love and offering up prayer for traveling mercies as you go to be with your family. My soul rejoices for your Mom though, knowing she is whole, happy and in the presence of the Almighty!

JenB - I hope this nasty strep goes away soon, sis!
