The Hobbit Hole XXVII - And there are many paths to tread...
http://freeper.the-hobbit-hole.net/ ^

Posted on 01/16/2006 6:56:15 AM PST by HairOfTheDog

Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!

And there are many paths to tread

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!

Good morning! Bible study is done, now Matthew's working on science and Joshua has started on math. Counting by 5s has a great rhythm. I like to dance around the living room counting by 5s.

I got caught up on the thread before they got up...

~sip~

Sounds good, Rose!

Have a good day, Rosie!!

Yippeeee...

I have nothing scheduled for today...and it's a beautiful day! Gonna work in the garden after we're done with school!

Hey! Steve got his thesis turned back in last night and will hopefully be going back to Stillwater on the BOB next Friday.

The turn around is going to be faster from now on...one day the thing will just need final aesthetic fixes and he'll be done. He thinks he's pretty close.

Ohpleaseohpleaseohplease!!! Heh heh!
