The Hobbit Hole XV - Pass them by! Pass them by!
See our freeper.the-hobbit-hole.net home page! ^

Posted on 09/02/2004 2:18:28 PM PDT by HairOfTheDog

Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!

...Pass them by! Pass them by!

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!

Sometimes I'm vey glad all we have to deal with is cold...

On the other hand (I think I've told this before...I apologize), one of my bosses in Germany met his wife via the Mt. St. Helens eruption back in...what was it? 1980? They were both at university in Montana, but had never really crossed paths, but when they volcano erupted, there was ash EVERYWHERE and the school was temporarily closed down - they told students to stay inside as much as possible. I remember this a bit as we were in Portland, OR at the time...I couldn't go out and play on the swings, and joggers put handkerchiefs over their mouths...

But in any case, because everyone was thrown together, groups of students ended up playing board games and just talking for hours, and THAT was when they met and first started dating!

Oh I ~know~ I've gone over the edge, sis. No worries!

I draw the line at purple dinosaurs though, so we're safe. ;-)

They use to have this show on Nickelodeon back in the day called "You Can't Do That On Television". There was cute boy on there....Alistair.....*dreamy sigh*

LOL!

It all goes back to the moral of the story, doesn't it?

BTW, can you believe they have a fan site for that show I mentioned? Here's the pic they have of Alasdair (correct spelling according to them)...

Oh we aren't in the path of it. We barely got a dusting before, and I think anything more out of this mountain will be more fascinating than damaging.

We aren't that far, but we aren't downwind, or downstream.

OK...then I guess you're allowed your woo-hoo. ;-)

Ranier would be a different story entirely, no?

Rainier would be damaging, but much much cooler. The likes of which few get to witness! :~D

Soupy here, just popping by to post a lovely little picture I found online:

Nyah-hah XD

And by the way, I happen to like Full Moon's happy fluffy ending. The last, what, twelve episodes were so full of angst, the characters rather needed a break, don't you think? ^_~

Hi Soupy-kun! Long time no see!

Ha! Love that. Will have to send it to my sisters who are also rabid Fullmetal Fangirls, thanks to you.

Don't tell anyone, but I still have a happy glow from the ending of Full Moon. I was rootin' for Takuto as soon as I was sure he wasn't Mitsuki's father. And I want to learn the words to "Myself". It's a lovely song... oh, I need this series to own... maybe my coworker will make me a copy. My sisters need to see it too. (Most interesting bit, I thought, was how the same song can sound so different depending on the singer. Mitsuki's version of "Eternal Snow" was so different from Madoko's, and Takuto's was even more different)

By the way... Full Moon wo Sagashite isn't licensed... maybe I can get you a copy of that. That'd keep you busy for a while, no?
