Poetry and Potpourri ........ September 22, 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.

Thanks for pinging me. It's a lovely thread. It's like an oasis from everything going on in other threads.

Thank you for coming by tonight!!

I will be happy to visit this thread - only one thing, you have to promise to make Texas Cowboy behave.

Good Idea on the thread - should be fun!.

There was a Marine deployed to Afghanistan. While he was there he received a letter from his girlfriend. In the letter she explained that she had slept with two guys while he had been gone and she wanted to break up...AND she wants the pictures of herself back.

So the Marine does what any squared-away Marine would do.

He went around to his buddies and collected all the unwanted photos of women he could find. He then mailed about 25 pictures to his girlfriend with the following note: "I'm sorry but I can't remember which one you are but please take the one that belongs to you and send the rest back.

The Prayer............

Gosh, it’s been a funny year

Some say they’re gone, but they’re still here.

Their handles change but that don’t matter

They still spit out the same old chatter.

They post their graphics from the same old sites

They send their minions to instigate fights

They make attacks under different names

Still playing all the same old games

Like high school girls they scheme and plot

Time hasn’t changed that pathetic lot

But I would like to simply tell ‘em….

For goodness sake, Take your valium

[chadsworth]

Hoooooray! My guy is back

wooooohooooo!

[MistyCA]

So sorry! I won't be posting it again. If it still bothers your browser we can have it deleted. :)
