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

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.

NO ..... it is really close. Several times, sailors from Lemoore Naval Air Station have stopped by our Rallies to thank us.

Geeze ..... that is only about 30 miles south of Fresno. If you get that close to Fresno and fail to check in, your name will be MuddyBrat!

I was looking for a pretty antique postcard to say hello to you with. Halloween kept popping up so it must be a sign.

"Greetings Mama_Bear"

[JustAmy]

AMEN

[Victoria Delsoul]

LOL! Flown, blown, how about...

[SpookBrat]

Well shoot.....she made it seem like it was a big ordeal to get to Fresno. I think I'll come to see you all but just tell my sister I'm coming to see her. LOL She'll never know the difference. She'll be glad to get rid of me for a couple of hours. I drive her crazy. I'm too laid back for her "type A" self.

[SpookBrat]

Tell Sassy not to be so domineering. (I'm tired myself).

Well, I never claimed to know f-16 from a bomber! I just know it's a awesome machine! :) B and f.....ok, bomber and fighter, right?

Hey guys and gals, I ran into RA over on another thread and invited him over here.

Here's a poem just for RA, from the Periodic Table of Haiku:

103 Lawrencium

cyclotron spirals
accelerating his name
a rare earth metal

[MistyCA]

Between you and Victoria, I bet you are going to both pass out in the hottub! LOL. Where is that hottub anyhow?....... AAw ha!

[Jen]

B = bomber
F = fighter

Very good Misty. :)

[Mama_Bear]

MuddyBrat!

LOL! That's funny.

Thanks for the "Halloween Hello", Spookbrat. I haven't had time to read the entire thread, did I miss something? Are you coming to Lemoore? :-)

[SpookBrat]

Eventually. My sister just moved out there this summer. They built a house and everything. She is having a hard time finding a church and considered driving into Fresno for one.

I hope to get out there soon. I would feel quilty going without my kids so I need to save enough money to fly them out too.

[MistyCA]

roflmao! HAHAHAHAHA! I tie a bow on my husband's "one". LOLOL!

[Jen]

Woah! Where did that crowd come from (not that I'm complaining...). I bettter go make another pitcher of Margaritas.

[Jen]

HAHAHAHAHA! I wasn't sure what you were tying a bow on until I went back to the post you referred to! Thought you were being a bit risque tonight! ;-)

"She is having a hard time finding a church and considered driving into Fresno for one"

Has she looked for a church in Hanford? That would be much closer and the town is large enough for several choices.

[MistyCA]

Don't get me posting my monkey stuff, kneezles! Amy will kick us all out! LOL!

[MistyCA]

LOLOLOL!
