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! |

good evenin'.
Had a nice day - meeting finished early. Good thing because the chairs were doing a number on my back. Ack!
But I've packed up and I'm getting ready to call it a day. I get to go home tomorrow! Wheeee!
I've really liked this visit. Folks are super nice here.

Hey... I'm over someplace arguing about ducks.
I don't know why. :-)

People that assume the same path is right for everyone get on my nerves. So do the ones that judge whole groups of people based on circumstances without knowing any details. Like the ones that assume anyone like me is a feminazi since I'm not married and don't have kids. As if getting married is something someone can just set out to do and accomplish, like buying a car or something. And the ones that gleefully state that any woman who isn't married young shouldn't bother trying any more, 'cause no one (in their right mind, anyway) would want them. Or that if you aren't married by a set age, you'll never have kids. Don't deserve kids.
I'd better step away from the keyboard. Tonight seems to be my night for insane ranting.

Oh yeah, I do read the news once in a while. *grin* News is highly overrated.
To: Ramius
Heh...yeah, but single wimmin are the last ones who should stop by those. It's just too doggone depressing.

I know it.
And that all divorced moms have some poor fella living just above the poverty line somewhere due to extravagent child support payments.
My ex doesn't pay me anything and I didn't ask to have his wages garnished.
I try to get by with nothing from him and only ask for him to buy something when I simply cannot afford to buy it.
I'd rather be broke and have a peaceful relationship with him than take cash by force and worry about the resentment he may demonstrate in front of my kids.
And I especially never want him to think that I depend on his money or that he has some authority over me because of money.

Heh. But it's not really about her. It's about Duckbooted Thugs. :-)
And Frogdude. Some good amusement there. :-)

I had someone else ping me back on last night's thread about Virginia Tech. I'm not answering them, there's no voice of reason over there.
Of course, VT does have a duck pond...
