The Hobbit Hole XXV - Fare you well! Fare you well!

Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!
Fare you well! Fare you well!
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! |

Ask around at school among the students or your professors. I'd bet someone you know there is a member, or maybe someone in your Church or in Rosie's Parish.

I've watched sunrise from a mountain I've climbed in the winter, 18' of snow, sub zero temps... a few months later I was watching the same sun rise in a red desert sky...
I've seen the sun rise red over a deep blue ocean from the deck of a troop ship...
I've seen the best, and the worst in the hearts of men...
I been so scared I thought I'd pissed myself...
I've wept with pride for my flag...
s'been a helluva ride...

Were you watching Fellowship last night?
It's actually been a good long while now since I've seen it. We need to get our DVD player hooked up again.
The old DVD player that's been going kaput we unplugged, and we plugged in your old one in the same place, and for whatever reason it doesn't work. We have to take apart the tangletown behind the TV and figure it out this weekend.

We now have a TV in the den, where my computer is, so I can do chat-views easily now, if I have the movies being chatted up! WooHoo!

Good morning Ruthy. I'm trying to deny that storm is really going to follow that path.

You'd be welcome... :-)
But it's our stormy season. Sometimes the wind gets up to... gosh... thirty or forty miles an hour.
Sometimes it'll even rain a whole inch in one day, too...
