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

Thanks for another wonderful poem. Are you and Sea Hawk one and the same? If you are not Sea Hawk, have you met him/her? These two poems are so similar in style. I enjoyed both!

I do not know "Sea Hawk". I am American Indian and the style, I believe , is from my native roots. It's in the blood. I belonged to the old Belvedere poetry thread and a lot of my poems are in the Anthology there.

It is a pleasure to welcome you to the new Poetry and Potpourri Thread.
We are so happy that you found us. May I add you to the ping list?

A blonde's apartment was on fire. She called 911.
Operator: 911 what is your emergency? Blonde: My apartment is on fire! Operator: How do we get there?
Blonde: Duhh... big red truck!

To: Victoria Delsoul

Wow, reminded me of this song... Picture yourself in a boat on a river With tangerine trees and marmalade skies Somebody calls you, you answer quite slowly A girl with kaleidoscope eyes
Cellophane flowers of yellow and green Towering over your head Look for the girl with the sun in her eyes And she's gone
Lucy in the sky with diamonds
Follow her down to a bridge by a fountain Where rocking horse people eat marshmallow pies Everyone smiles as you drift past the flowers That grow so incredibly high
Newspaper taxis appear on the shore Waiting to take you away Climb in the back with you head in the clouds And you're gone
Lucy in the sky with diamonds
Picture yourself on a train in a station With plasticine porters with looking glass ties Suddenly someone is there at the turnstile The girl with kaleidoscope eyes
Great post! |
