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!

No thanks.

I'll sit on the bank and watch though!

spring is best, but there are various species at various times of year. Late summer is worst.

Well, be sure to pick one up in the supermarket if you can.

Actually, my participation would be limited to driving the group to the nearest legal noodling river, passing out cold beers to the participants and keeping the cell phone handy.

There's a lot of freshwater fishing here too, though I don't personally do it much. I have no idea whether it's legal to shoot a fish or not in FL with a bow. I have a feeling people do it though. The canal alongside 41 is full of gars.

Heading for bed.

Good night, All.

You know, I hadn't actually thought of that song until you mentioned it!
