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 think we've had enough wedding talk, now haven't we.

And I can say that, because, from what I've heard ~I~ had the biggest wedding of any of the regulars here.

Not the most formal, or best party. But certainly the biggest (shut up g'nad) wedding party.

Hard to tell if that's for real or clever compositing.

I'm a big proponent of eloping, personally.

I think the footage is real, with the sound effects added. I don't recognize that guy, but I'm sure he's authentic.

If we had to do it over again, I be thinkin' the same thing.

All of those people in our wedding picture were very close at the time. Now, almost 19 years later, we really just keep in touch with a couple of our closest friends and the family (and not all of them).

As opposed to eloping by proxy? ;-)

Big'ol and I figure we'll have a super big par-tay when we hit the 10-year mark. It's still a couple years off, but it gives us plenty of time to plan. :)

There will be neither seating charts nor place cards.
