How can I tell Troy Jollimore what a totally necessary poem that is? First thought was: not one reader will not see themselves somewhere in those lines. It's an everyreader picece of work— which is no easy feat. Thanks also for making it available online: saved me writing it out in order to circulate widely.
Respectfully, gratefully,
Mary
Troy Jollimore has touched my heart with this poem. It has such lovely imagery. All in all it's an amazing read.
PS: I printed it and framed it and am going to give it as a gift to my husband this weekend. A gift from Troy Jollimore :-) I know it's maybe more of a sad poem since it's about regret & obviously I married my boyfriend, but I'm giving it as a present for its beauty. He'd appreciate such art.
Thanks. Sorry for the long comment.
I read this poem while sitting in a waiting room at a hospital. I was there for 8 hours. I couldn't stop reading it. Everytime I read it I saw a new image in my head. It went deeper.By the time I left I fell in love with it. It was perfect! It touched a real side of me that I think needed to read this. Thank you!
wow, this was one amazing poem. I stumbled upon this site and I'm really glad I did.
