Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!
Sand and Stone and Pool and Dell...
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! |

More like the Conan chick ... she's a Marine, after all!
I have a set of stories where the women are all named for trees. In a related family, the women are all named for flowers; hence, Valerian, Rosetta, Rue, et al.
I dunno ... maybe I should change her name to Veronica --- that means "fidelity."
Oh, yeah ... it's Veronica Peppers now!
Thanks, G'nad!

Ugh. My life:
Management to peons: Thou shalt use the database thingie. Compliance will be a consideration in your annual evaluation.
Peons to management: But the database thingie doesn't *work*!!!
Management to peons: Don't bother us with the details.

But I need a snooty name ... he comes from snooty parents. Bryson Kincaid III, maybe? Both his dad and grandfather were veterinarians of top-end horses? Or maybe they were surgeons and he's a bit of a black sheep?

Me too!
Good morning everyone!
The day care took Alyson today on a trial basis. Prayers that she behaves well enough where they decide she's not too much trouble to keep!
