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

Victoria is better at posting music than I am (with her Real Player). Here's a midi I found. Can you find the original Vic?

Hi there Jen, nice to see you too :-) When my Mom sent me that poem, I was in college. I glued it on a plaque and put dried flowers around it, I still have it :-)

Good to hear that you have your mother home now. You sound so exhausted. I can't believe that you took the time to stop by. Thank You.
Shame on you, Calpernia!!!

I can't tell you how many times I heard that poem recited - often from memory - during my years in the Mary Kay business. It is very inspirational and kept me working towards my goals after I had setbacks and was ready to quit. I think I'll send it to my daughter who is in college - like your mom did for you. :)
