The Hobbit Hole XXIII - Let them go! Let them go!
Posted on 07/12/2005 8:11:36 PM PDT by HairOfTheDog
Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!
Let them go! Let them go!
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! |

I love the way you think! ;-D
Sadly, that wouldn't work for me. They'd simply reassign me to another PC. Phooey!

Actually, it's evolved into a wedding discussion. But I'd agree that the flip flops were a little too informal for the White House.

Or what's worse is the boss that says "Absolutely, positively DO NOT process this "xyz" until all the I's are dotted and the T's crossed" Okay, "xyz" comes in, sloppy and incomplete as usual, you do not process it, and are called into said boss's office. When you remind said boss of your previous conversation, boss says "There you go, throwing it back in my face". Need to make escape plans immediately, 'cause your dealing with a very unstable situation!!

I slept in a LOT this morning. Dunno what happened. I wasn't up all that late, and usually I'm wide awake pretty early.

No sir.
I'll be sure to take them off and clasp them to my chest as I die, just to be sure. :-D

That is precisely what I'm dealing with here, sis.
We sit through these long, boring training sessions where we're told not to do this and that.
Once we're back in the fray, all of the rules go out the window.

My 59 cent sprouter is now up to $6! Woohoo! Go sprouter go!
I'm hoping for $10...it's not much but I know from experience that every little bit helps!
