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!

Happy Hurricane Season Eve!

I'm outta here. ~May~ be able to check in from my Mom's, but she's on ~dialup~. [shudder]

Otherwise, we'll see y'all tomorrow night.

And, in other news, my Mom is trying to figure out the best time to drive to South Carolina to see ~her~ sister, who may not make it through the week. She's probably leaving after the funeral tomorrow.

~sigh~

Good morning!

See ya, Corin!

I have been learning about Wicca from a thread I posted on. Apparently they do this thing called "Skyclad" and involves them being naked!

I'll say. Learn something new every day!

On a related note, I've harvested 4 zucchinis!

I think some varmint has chomped more of my okra plants.

...but my collards have grown back enough to give me another harvest.

We definitely have a bunny in our garden eating our carrots and peas. But the carrots are done and I just pull what is too skimpy on leaves and the peas are done too...too hot. It doesn't bother anything else.

It's just a baby. Joshua loves to sit out there and quietly watch it. It actually came within a foot of me sitting on the ground last night.

We call it Fiver.

Heh heh! I actually caught all of our bunnies in a butterfly net a few years back and took them over to the other side of the river and let them go. This is the first one in a long time that I've seen back there.

We have a piece of PVC pipe back there...pretty big, that it likes to run through. It'll run through, turn around, kick it's back feet up in the air and run back through it! Over and over. I'd swear it was playing! It leaps and twists around in the air! Quite the antics! All with us sitting right there by it.

I don't mind the one...
