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

I will try to remember to pop in every so often and post one of my son's poems. His poetry is sometimes off the wall, but good.
IGNORANCE AND APATHY
Ignorance and apathy,
What a harmonious pair,
Leaving you with no appetite,
Just a long and drawn out stare.
What a way to fantasize,
The world's what you believe.
Ignorance and apathy,
Why would you want to leave?
Lie awake and wonder
All about the world,
But don't unwrap the knowledge
Or question what's unfurled.
Ignorance and apathy,
What a boring pair.
I would find something better,
But I don't know and I don't care. C.B.Lee

Hey, Finest FReepers, did you see Amy's newest venture? Hard to know who was pinged and who wasn't, cuz she didn't have the Finest ping list, and others have pinged some on their lists, too. It's a fun place - come see!

All is terrific with us. This thread does feel like homecoming. How have you been? We've missed you too. It just seems that life and business get in the way of our FR time.....boo hoo.....sniff. :) God bless you, my friend.

I'm better than fine Sassy, but like you I stay so involved with so many things I meet myself going in circles.

I dabble in animation, but there are several sites on the internet where you can find things too. Google up "cartoon dolls" or dollz. There are several types. www.dollzmania.com is a fun site too. So is the dollpalace.com. You just have to hunt around.
