The Hobbit Hole XXV - Fare you well! Fare you well!
http://freeper.the-hobbit-hole.net/ ^

Posted on 10/15/2005 7:13:08 AM PDT by HairOfTheDog

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!

<chuckling> G'nad, you're special.

Seriously, you should think about doing a poetry collection, if you not already working on one. Your writing is vivid and evocative, and makes me think.

That's what poetry is for ...

And don't knock nightmares! Clive Barker, Quentin Tarantino, H. P. Lovecraft, and Stephen King have all done quite nicely writing nightmares!

Retail bootleggin'....oh wait! Mississippi...never mind.

I had an Uncle John who was a bootlegger! Spent some time in Parchman for it, too. That was before he got religion and married my Aunt Heppie, my Daddy's older sister.

Just so y'all know, NaNoWriMo's website has a new feature that will let writing buddies keep up with their word counts.

2005/10/19

NaNoWriMo Friend feature...

In anticipation of the launch of our brand-new author pages, Russ has added a new beta feature to the site: The NaNoWriMo Friend list. You can find a link for it on your profile page (it's over there to the left). With it, you'll be able to keep track of your writing buddies' word counts once November gets rolling. It looks a little rough now, but it will be an integral part of the new Author Profile pages when they launch on November 1. Yay, Russ!
