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! |

Hey - that sounds real good. Go give Rasputin a smooch :~D
To: JenB
I hadn't realized it was a two-parter...so I've only seen the first half.
Ungh...still stayed up too late. Gonna be a painful day.
To: Corin Stormhands; HairOfTheDog
Morning, Hair; well, we're back with one happy gypsygirl.
Corin: Fascinating..hmm. Isn't that in the proximate time frame of Grandcanyon Moot?
To: SuziQ; HairOfTheDog; osagebowman
Why yes, it would be in time for GrandCanyonmoot.
It may seriously mean nothing. But the deal is I can retire at age 50 with 10 years of service as opposed to the 20 that I'd thought previously.
While the pension would be significantly less, I would have the option of staying in the health insurance program.
It may never work out. But suddenly, I don't feel as trapped any more.
So, there's that.

Heh...thanks sis...
I just so love Oklahoma. There isn't a night that goes by that I don't watch the news and hear about some antic an Okie has done, or the courageous way they've handled themselves.
Then there's Matthew's Latin and Joshua's gymnastics. I could probably find something for Joshua almost anywhere, but Matthew's Latin is something that is one of a kind and a great part of his self-identity is wrapped up in it, if you know what I mean. He's very proud of it.
This are relatively minor concerns, however. And if we move to Bartlesville, it's an hour and a half away and would be worth it to me to drive back every week at least for Matthew's Latin.

FWIW, Glenn Beck is saying that X-Men 3 is the best one yet.
He says make sure you stay though ALL of the credits.

I'm gonna wait until the lines die down a bit, but I think I *will* go see it. It isn't ROTK, but it should be fun! ;-)
To: RosieCotton; 2Jedismom; RMDupree; Bear_in_RoseBear; ecurbh; HairOfTheDog
Yeah, like I said yesterday, I need to see United 93, then I'll see X-men, and then Cars.
Anything else big coming out this summer that's a must see?
I can't remember.

Well, ecurbh and I may do the bad thing and see DaVinci. I must say I'm intrigued just 'cuz a love a big conspiracy, even a fictional one (and aren't all the really good conspiracies fiction?) ;~D. We keep talking about it but sure if we'll end up seeing any of them in the theater... it involves going to ~town~.
Maybe we could be talked in to seeing X3 with Rosie in the theater.
To: HairOfTheDog
Of course, we could always have ~cookies~ too. Don't have to go to town for them. ;~D
