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!

Have fun!

either of you two have an extra coffee pot you could bring?

Do you mean a carafe or the whole coffee maker? I can bring mine, but it's so low-tech it doesn't even have an on/off switch.

Stupid Iowa laws. I am waiting for my renewed pistol purchase permit to come in the mail so I can go pick up the new toy I ordered on friday. If only I had noticed that that was the expiration date (curses!). Heres hoping it comes tomorrow and I can go pick it up before I head down.

argh and stuff...

Heh... that's always been one of my special peeves with those silly waiting period or permit laws. Gotta wait 5 days to buy a new gun... when I have a gunsafe *full* of other guns already.

Look... if I wanted to go shoot somebody *right now* I'm already capable of that. :-)

Dopey, it is.

Looks like some good mooting goin' on.

My sister got back* to Finland OK...just in time to be "let go".

If she gets another job over there, it'll be her fourth. Kinda hoping she gives a look over this way.

If nothing else it would take the pressure off me, being the only immediate family on the same continent :/

*She was with my mom in Washington when Mom broke her arm.
