The Hobbit Hole XXIX - Until the stars are all alight...
http://freeper.the-hobbit-hole.net/ ^

Posted on 04/20/2006 2:10:46 PM PDT by HairOfTheDog

Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!

Until the stars are all alight

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.

Gee, Mom I wanna go
But they won't let me go
Gee, Mom I wanna go HOME.

Go home, already? It must be pretty BAAAD there at work. ;o)

What a drippy, dreary day here. It's COLD, too! The Girl Scouts have their Encampment this weekend, and I'm SO hoping that the rain doesn't return before Sunday afternoon, after the bus arrives back in town. Thankfully, I don't have to take the bus; we need a car for emergencies, and mine's the one!

Show me the way to go home...
I am home, but I'm still scrubbing wallpaper paste off the ceiling and walls.

I'm tired and I want to go to bed.
Question--can I get it done before and the ceiling painted before the counter get installed tomorrow morning???

Answer--Not by FReeping, see y'all later :-)

I just hope it's not a "join me, and together we can rule the universe" sort of effect...

Surely you're not afraid of the competition?

(I have GOT to sign off and get this work done. See y'all later)

Competition? Them? I laugh at the thought.

More like "ho hum, another minor annoyance to deal with".
