The Hobbit Hole XX - And take the hidden paths that run...
The Freeper Hobbit Hole ^

Posted on 03/05/2005 11:51:13 AM PST by HairOfTheDog

Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!

And take the hidden paths that run...

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!

If we're half the people I think we are, I think we owe him a knife. ;-)

Aye.

I mean, if I were as completely charitable as I wish I could be...like Jesus, you know...I wouldn't have been so filled with glee when The Boys got toasted...I wouldn't have made the two punkin pies for two dead guys!

Some people just think Peter Jennings is just as bad.

And now you know.

It makes us much better teenagers and college students to get that sort of stuff out of our systems early.

I can't get my thrills from human suffering.

Well, if suffering is the issue... can we wish for a sudden, massive heart attack? I had an uncle go like that... he and his wife came home from a party, he went into the living room while she went into the kitchen. She was talking to him from one room to the other when she heard a noise, went in to the living room to see what was wrong and found him dead on the floor. No warning, no pain, just "thud" on the floor.

ok, ok, just kidding about wishing it on anybody... mostly...

I remember my former pastor saying that that's how he wants to go too.

To be just strolling along then POW!...and wake up in the presence of the Lord. And the feast, of course.

He is a heavy-set fella and has no shame about loving to eat. :-D

I prefer to die in my sleep, as most people do, I guess.

My only hope is that I'll be ill shortly before, so folks that love me have time to come visit me before I go.

You should live long enough to move in with your children...

Although the revenge side of that thought is sweet, I couldn't stand it if my kids started to resent me.
