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! |

Yeah... I was thinking the Borgias would be a good analogy, too.

Good evening...
I was right about the phone.
Got it back; no harm done.
I'd like not to be so dad-blamed busy all the time. OTOH, this beats unemployment all to ittybittybits.

You know the Borgias started out with a pawnshop.
To: Bear_in_RoseBear; All
OK. What is this and what is it doing?

He looks like a school patrol directing traffic.
What's that gotta do with Middle Earth?
Was there a Middle Earth Elementary hidden in the Shire?

That's easy, sis.
That's her when she was standing at Edoras watching Aragorn & Co approach.

Our web server's down.... the whole freeper.the-hobbit-hole.net troop support blog, everything.
ecurbh's got some enquiries in, but right now, his email for the troops, everything, is 'gone walkabout' as Ramius put it.

I liked Amber because the scheming family politics put me in mind of my family. Except we like each other.
I like the series and the characters are great but not one of them - not even Corwin or Merlin - are people I'd like to have at my back in a fight. Nor at my side. Maybe in front of me as a shield.
