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!

In other news, I decided to celebrate my high cholesterol level by consuing half a bag of pork rinds and a tin of smoked oysters.

*grin*

It's terrible isn't it?

I went to the doctor today too, as a matter of fact.

It was a re-check from last week's appointment and guess what? Now I've got to go back ~again~ next week because I need yet another re-check.

*sigh*

Doctors suck.

Ain't that the truth!

Oh! And ~then~ he says he's gonna write down the name of a book I should go get. I figger it's re: cholesterol.

The name of the book, you ask?

"Eat More, Weigh Less"

~big sigh~

Hey! I thought you liked dragons.

It's dragon-like.

That thing is no more dragon than I am.

Ack, the Hole was almost off my "posts" page. Between the Harry Potter thread and getting pinged multiple times to the anime geek thread...

Yep, thanks. And I'm just amused about the otaku thread... guess my tastes are too well known around here.

Heh, I have no idea what otaku is, and didn't even read the post. My ping was based solely on the word 'anime' in the title. ;~D

Heh... that, too.... otaku means, basically, nerd.

The other weird word in the title, manga, means graphic novel and both 'a's are long. Just in case you cared.

Thanks... I've heard the word manga, but had no idea how it was different from anime.

Guess I always sort of skipped over the posts where it was previously discussed.
