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! |

Well, at least with the "Narnia" game, those who have read the books will have an idea of how to play it.

How do you feel about getting hitched up with a one-eyed war hero whose very existence is a Scandal in the town?Um...hmm...well...is he Catholic? ;-)
Just kiddin'. Whatever works, I guess!
Bob just finished having a very long and boring conversation about nicknames. *sigh* Good for word count, I guess.

I have the BBC version you reference. While looking for it I found an American dramatized version and at least one unabridged reading.

And with Ruthy's call of "Titanic", the game ends with her as the decided victor!
*reaches for the pot and then thinks again and pushes it over to Ramius*

No, dear. You can keep it and add it to the pot I gave you.
Enjoy!

Tonight's episode of South Park had Tommy boy in it.

<bemused> Rosie, I'd not considered it ... but I'll bet he is!
Ever since I met Tait, I've been trying to hitch him to your character, and I couldn't figure out why!
<smiling mischieviously>If you saw him, you'd know why you like him ...! And the eye patch isn't bad, either!
To: RosieCotton
Not yer average chick flick...Yeah, I like 'chicks kick a$$' flicks. I liked Aliens the best of all of that series of films for that reason.

Sheets of empty canvas, untouched sheets of clay
Were laid spread out before me as her body once did
All five horizons revolved around her soul
As the earth to the sun
Now the air I tasted and breathed has taken a turn
Ooh, and all I taught her was everything
Ooh, I know she gave me all that she wore
And now my bitter hands chafe beneath the clouds
Of what was everything?
Oh, the pictures have all been washed in black, tattooed everything...
I take a walk outside
I’m surrounded by some kids at play
I can feel their laughter, so why do I sear
Oh, and twisted thoughts that spin round my head
I’m spinning, oh, I’m spinning
How quick the sun can, drop away
And now my bitter hands cradle broken glass
Of what was everything (note the lack of question mark)
All the pictures have all been washed in black, tattooed everything...
All the love gone bad turned my world to black
Tattooed all I see, all that I am, all I’ll ever be...yeah...
Uh huh...uh huh...ooh...
I know someday you’ll have a beautiful life, I know you’ll be a star
In somebody else’s sky, but why
Why, why can’t it be, why can’t it be mine

To: Ramius
OK, I admit I was waiting for your post. :-D
Now that song will play in my head all night now. ~sigh~
And I see your point. It's a tear-jerker, alright.
But you still can keep the pot. :-P
Nighty night, hon.
