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! |

HAHAHAHAHA!!!
He's good too.
And don't forget the flower girl who just happened to be looking back at that very moment.
I betcha she forgot about the flowers instantly.

Well they'd have to put it on a line, wouldn't they.
To: Ramius
I think the kid on the far left of the picture noticed...

Whatta show! It's important to think of the guests at such an event, and make sure that they enjoy the evening as much as the Bride and Groom do.

Well, of course... if they are European swallows, but if they were African swallows...

I've been to a lot of weddings, but never one ~quite~ like that...

If flashing my boobs is the only thing guaranteed to give the guests an enjoyable evening, they can just stay bored.

Whatta show! After everybody recovers, and [ahem] readjusts... the temptation to walk up and stuff a dollar in there would be overwhelming... :-) [ducking]

I got a banjo...and a dulcimer.I'll see your banjo and raise ya a fiddle, guitar and mando.
There's a dulcimer at home that Dad said I could claim, but I haven't yet. It's what we learned the scale and basic tunes on.
