Comment from royowen
I have many regrets, (although I don't harbour them anymore) I responded to many jargonidtic, clichéd, working class activities and sayings when young, but really they were only excuses for morally weak behaviour. Well done, you prove once again what a marvellous wordsmith you, although iambic tetrameter is not usually rhymed with abcb. As usual great descriptive language and imagery Tom. Well done, Blessings, Riy

Hi Roy. Thank you for a great review and I'm impressed with your poetic knowledge. Actually, iambic verse can be found in all rhyme structures to no rhyme structure at all. But, I agree, usually one sees abab rhyme schemes. Thanks a again Roy. tom

Comment from GSmuse
This poem deserves six stars but for some reason did not appear for me to select it.
I hope this poem is not autobiographical? The only merit that I can glean is that the person finally recognized his human errors and a waste of what could have been.
Choices, choices, choices, they make all the difference. Your writing is carefully crafted and flows well. Much success to you, perhaps I will find more of your work?
