The Hobbit Hole XXII - ...Apple, thorn, and nut and sloe
http://freeper.the-hobbit-hole.net/ ^

Posted on 06/01/2005 7:12:04 PM PDT by HairOfTheDog

Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!

...Apple, thorn, and nut and sloe

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!

That's great!

Hey, I was standing in the kitchen with Steve last night...he was home early because he had to take the rental car back up to the airport and the last bus leaves from there at 5:45pm. So were were standing there, he was snacking on some of your turkey and I was polishing off the rest of Bambi. I says to him..."Vacation's over...I don't want to see you again till that paper's written."

So we're buckling down for the final push.

What's this about throwin' folks outta airplanes?

I'd say it doesn't take much in the way of training to jump out of a plane. But the parachuting and landing part might need a little edumacatin'.

That's what I was thinkin'.... and I'm not really current on my license, but he wouldn't have to worry about my landings anyway.
