Poetry and Potpourri .... October 31, 2003, November 1-2, 2003

.................................................................








The Poetry Branch has been in limbo since the prior hostess left FreeRepublic April 15th 2003. We've since learned that said hostess has lost her posting privilege. That being the case, and Jim Robinson having given his ok, I wanted to renew the thread.

FreeRepublic is blessed with many fine poets, and we look forward to seeing their poems posted on FR once again. There were many non-poet FReepers who visited the Poetry Branch for the camaraderie; we hope they will return.

I would like to invite everyone to visit and relax at Poetry and Potpourri. Hopefully you will renew old acquaintances for chatting, sharing jokes, telling stories, posting cartoons, etc. Everyone needs a place to escape from the everyday news, make Poetry and Potpourri that place.

Hi Spooky

Maybe the kids can either write a poem to post or can find one that appeals to them. It would be great to get them involved.

Good Morning, Mayor. Great to see you.
Did the kids get enough candy for all of us?

Wishing you a great week-end. Glad you enjoyed that silly little poem.

I need to enter some more poems written by my aunt.
I have one for tomorrow but need to enter a few more.

Oh my goodness!! I can't believe you went to FC!!! I wish we'd been there at the same time but I didn't attend until 91-92 (just one year). I graduated from high school in 1989. Do you by any chance know any of the Hartsells from Alabama? I'm not sure who of their clan would have been there at that time but somebody had to be, they're everywhere! LOL

When were you at TWU? I was there from 94-96.

From summer at the beginning of the week, to sudden winter at the end of the week!
Help! Someone please take home with them in a warmer climate for the winter! Help, help! Will work for sunshine!
