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'm standing with Ruthy on this, g'nad.

Good morning all! What a week I have before me! This is our last week before we start school and I've decided to go out with a blast. Matthew and Joshua are having Caleb and Stefan over to swim on Thursday, Celeste's kids over on Friday and Matthew's best friend is coming over on Saturday (the one that his brother has leukemia) to swim and play XBox. (They are both Star Wars fanatics.)

Steve asked me "Why haven't you been doing this all summer?" I just stared at him. LOL!!!

Prayers for Marsha's family. I'll add them, and her, to our Parish Prayer list this week.

She's 71? Are you series? I saw her on tv a couple of years ago and she was as pretty as ever!

Well, not in that picture. ;-)

But "I Dream of Jeannie" ran from 1965-1970.

Woo-hoo! I know who she is!

Good morning all! I am still insufferably cheerful this morning. Don't know why. It just seems like it's a good thing, this whole being alive business.

Yep!! It's supposed to clear out on Wednesday.

The funny thing is, the moms of the kids that are coming over on Thursday have made a party of it! LOL!! I was providing cokes anyways and now they're organizing snacks and such! I can't believe it. I just thought having a couple of kids over for a swim would be nice and now it's an event!

I'm so looking forward to getting back into the world again!

LOL!! I know what you mean! I was looking forward to getting more involved in my support group then all hell broke loose with that!

I find it amazing though, that these ladies just seemed to jump on the opportunity to come to my house and have an "event". A lot of times I think people like my kids and just put up with me. They must not mind me so much, though, because they coulda just dropped the kids off! Instead, it appears they want to come over and not only let the kids play, but visit with me too! I didn't even suggest it, it seemed so unlikely!

Heh!

Heh...I dunno. That's probably from the 60s anyway.
