I recently discovered this poem was published in a poetry collection "The 100 Best Love Poems of All Time" by Leslie Pockell. I know it would have thrilled my dad to see one of his poems included in a collection with Edgar Allen Poe, Walt Whitman, Lord Byron, Slyvia Plath, and so many other renowned poets.
