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! |

Anton Hewlitt was going to fall, he couldn't avoid it. But, if he contorted himself just so, he could either fall on a tall white column of tires overflowing with pumpkins, or on the tall curvy blonde standing next to the tires.Being a gentleman, he tried to avoid the curvy blonde ... and failed utterly. Being a compassionate man, he checked her out to make sure she was okay, after being hit in the head by a six-foot-five, two-hundred-plus pound man. Being male, and having a pulse, he wasn't entirely sorry sorry the outcome of his experiment --- who knew there were such appealing scenery in the wilds of Washington State?
It wasn't until he sat up that he realized he'd lost his clothes on the way down. His very next realization was that he could, even at the ripe old age of 240 years, still blush ...

Sheesh...the thread really deserves a PG-13 rating tonight, no?
To: RosieCotton
Sorry. It's late.
And I'm off to bed.
But it truly is ~his~ fault. He provoked me. ;-)

Nah ... just having a writing fit.
Hey, if Corin can talk about pork chops, I can talk about ol' Anton ...

Dunno if that's how Anton got into his predicament, or if he was doin' something else up yonder ...!

But he's too tall...
To: RosieCotton; HairOfTheDog
Yes, he's naughtily naked and delectably fine, but you've got no time for exchanging blushes, girlfriend ... you look up, and Hair's gawkin' at the two of you from the barn.
She's running for the house, yellin' for ecurbh, and you know Hair ... she might just shoot your visitor from her porch, on general principles. They don't call her Deadeye just 'cause they like her.
What'cha gonna do???

And, as for being too tall ... there's no such thing as perfection in this life, girlfriend.
And you may find that this brawny six-foot-five man from Heaven is just what that blonde needs ... height and all.
<laughing> You should write this poor woman's journal!

What'cha gonna do???Heh...I think this is one of those situations it's hard to call ahead of time...
Honestly, though, I *think* my *first* reaction would be to run for my life, though. ;-)
To: RosieCotton
Run away, and just leave that poor helpless man there to Hair's and Gidget's dubious mercies?
Poor naked man ...!

Fear not. I have personal knowledge of a 41-year-old woman who is beginning to believe she's finally found the "right man". Sometimes it takes so long. You know I'm pretty much in the same place, and I know it is frustrating.
My read on "those" threads is that they are largely inhabited by people who have had bad experiences or (in greater proportion) those who had unrealistic, media-made ideas about how it's supposed to work.
And yes, some of them are looking for 22-year-old honeys who'll look on their bf's gray hair as a mark of distinction, a badge of manhood. Fie on such :)
Insofar as I concern myself with age of a potential mate, it's "for the children"...I want 'em, and it would be nice to have a partner willing and physically able to have 'em.
As the Lord provides.

That's right ExGeeEye. We have too many folks on this thread who should never have met, but did, and are happy, to say anything's ever outsidethe realm of possible.
