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! |

 A bit of evil lurks in your heart, but you hide it well.
In some ways, you are the most dangerous kind of evil. |

Checking this for tag-line worthiness:
"This is NOT a war against just Al Qaeda, any more than WW2 was against just the Japanese Navy."
Had to edit.

Why? 'Cause I was dropping naked redheaded men on Rosie?
<snicker> It was fun. Especially the "yeah, yeah, and then what happened?" parts. The image of Hair taking aim with her rifle ... priceless!
And, hey, I'm not the one who brought out the riding crop!

And I'm changing your redhead's name to Manuel MacGray.
Working title: Manny From Heaven.
Now I can chuckle about that one all day long!

Manny From Heaven...
So, does that mean she had cried out to God for "Manny"...God provided...she was happy for a while and then got sick of Manny, Manny, Manny and started to grumble about him, and then God punished her for her grumbling... :-)
No, wait, that's a different book, and I'm not certain, but I don't think it was "Manny"...
It was fun catching up from last night's posting...good story line Rose!

You know, that sounds like a good NaNoWriMo story! Names being changed to protect the innocent, mind you.

OK, folks. We're hitting the road. Off to get a truck and a big trailer for our move. Then I'm going on down to the Coast to spend the weekend with my sister and girl cousins and won't be back for a week. WooHoo!
I'll see if I can pop on from time to time, but it's not likely. Be sure to send the new address if y'all move while I'm gone!

Besides, he'd mash my corn and pumpkins! But just think of the zucchini...

 You are evil, but you haven't yet mastered the dark side.
Fear not though - you are on your way to world domination. |

I think it approached and then hit 6/6/6 in certain time zones and things just went downhill from there. ;-)

Thank you!
See that house in the background, with the red car in the drive in the VBS picture of the jedis? That was the house that had the busted septic tank that the golden retriever (the one I rescued) drank out of. Then this guy in his 30s and his very young wife moved in there and really really fixed the place up sharp. Made the garage into a dog grooming business for his wife, but then she left him and we were worried about the guy there for a while because he was despondent and had a gun. But he seems to have recovered well, has a pretty blonde girlfriend and he really keeps the house up nice. I like him...he doesn't talk to us much (except he apologized when a friend of his drove his motorcycle through our front yard and put a rut there) but he always always waves at us when he goes by...which is more neighborly than a lot of people are in this area.

 You are good. So good, that you make evil people squirm.
Just remember, you may need to turn to the dark side to get what you want! |

Heh heh...
We live on river bottom land...it used to be solid fruit trees all through here. They actually just tore down the old fruit tree farm house down the road a year or so ago...made me want to cry, it was such a cool old house.
When we dig in the dirt here, we dig up all kinds of neat stuff...old broken bottles, barbed wire...stuff you don't expect in a subdivision back yard.
