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!

Four months is as long as we've been engaged... so at least from about here on it's downhill.

This was a long semester, I can't think why.

I got a note back from him after our Christmas card. All was well with them then as far as I know.

Wonder if he's still got that job... it might be limiting his ability to be associated here.

Heh... well, I was mostly speaking in the more general sense of "here" meaning FR. Most of those kinds of folk can't do message boards and not get in trouble.

I know, I was mostly joking.

Shame, that. If you don't talk about your day job seems like your private life should be, well, private.

Although he has been around FR lately.

So...how much preliminary work is permissible for Nanowrimo?

I have a couple of new character names and I'm anxious to see if a plot will develop around them.

Okay, so that was cool. I just watched them raise the flag on The Pier.
