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!

Angst. Lots of angst. Dripping, dark, gloomy angst.

Nice sentiment. But it's not part of the song...

They aren't gonna be stuck on the train too much longer. Gonna get moved to a containment facility.

Wish I could figure out why I picked Mr. Nice Guy to be the POV for the intro. Mostly because I don't want to spoil any of the surprises on the more interesting characters.

I'm already tired.

LOL! I can understand why! We used to go the the next town over where they had a great fireworks display at the high school. They haven't had it for the last couple of years because they were renovating and adding on the the school. I don't know if they'll do it this year, but we're not that interested anymore.

I picked up the Building Permit today, so we're going to do some stuff on the beginnings of the remodel project! We've taken down the old deck, and we're going to construct a temporary deck right behind the garage so we can back the trailer with materials into the garage and unload it through the door that we're going to cut a hole for and install. That way we don't have to drive the car across the yard all the time!

If it weren't for bad luck, I'd have no luck at all.

Evening - we saw a couple of those PBS movies, pretty good. Lou Diamond Philips did a Jim Chee movie, it was a pilot as we understand it for a show based on the series. He did a good job with the role.

I think Wes Studi did a good job as the "Legendary Lt. Joe Leaphorn".

"Hunting Badger" a good read for sure. Heck, they all are. Reading them in order helps.

Remember - out there, Coyote Waits.

Evening - Those a great pics, sounds like a super trip out west. Trouble is, once you start taking them, the West will lure you back, time and time again.
