The Hobbit Hole XVIII - Though we pass them by today...
The Freeper Hobbit Hole ^

Posted on 12/20/2004 9:01:36 AM PST by ecurbh

Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!

Though we pass them by today...

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!

It was a blue sweet corn...you cook it on the cob just like regular yellow corn. It was supposed to turn jade green when you cook it.

Just got this word from our homeschool group. G'nad and I are taking the kids and the camera and are going to make a day of it...

Everyone is encouraged to attend the Homeschool Rally to be held at
the State Capitol in Jefferson City, MO. The Rally will be held
January 18 and will begin at 11:30 a.m.

The Governor proclaims January 18 - Homeschool Day.

Green corn? That's a little scary. And to think people are scared of genetically modified corn, the natural stuff is way more weird.

Red corn's not nearly as scary as blue corn!
