The Hobbit Hole XIV - Hill and Water Under Sky
See our freeper.the-hobbit-hole.net home page! ^

Posted on 08/05/2004 5:47:31 PM PDT by HairOfTheDog

Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!

...Hill and water under sky

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!

yeah... the male grads I've seen all are overweight, in dire need of a new wardroge, bath, shave and a haircut... it's like they're trying to act the part of a slob grad student...

Here we have those, and then goth types, foreigners, and those really skinny types with no muscles and ponytails. I like ponys but you gotta be able to wear one.

Funny thing is, I was thinking earlier that that picture was a bit "artsy"...in a folkartsy kinda way. At least to me. If it was a painting, I think it would be neat!

Wish I could have it commissioned!

I have a portrait of our old Saab, pen and ink, with a tree growing up through it...it's from the perspective of our neighbor's dog...like he was looking through the chain link fence at it. It's really cool.

And I have a water color of some peas...Steve had it done for the bathroom. HA HA HA!!

Good evening!

Music night is over. Gonna hang out here for a bit and then read before bed. Now that it's darkish when I get up, morning seems like it's coming awfully early...

Mostly, the guys are nice. A lot of them are kind of in awe of a girl who can compete at their level. The ones I work with treat me like a lady, which is nice. Even the grungy guy is nice once you get to know him.

But I avoid goths.

LOL!!

It was a cool car, Steve wanted to renovate it some day and I made him get rid of it. I wish I hadn't now. We coulda put it in the shop at least.

I feel bad about it.

That's really Steve's doing...he does much of the cooking (he's just better at it than I am) and he doesn't like anything but the TV on the kitchen counter. I'll put a nice basket of produce out and he sweeps it into the fridge. He likes a blank slate to cook on! LOL
