And, given the editorial stand of the man (and his later location in Kentucky), I doubt he and Catherine would have crossed paths.<br /><br />I suspect Daisy may have been an oft-seen name or nickname during that time. Catherine probably identified with the sentiments contained within these poems, which feeling the coincidence of names must have only augmented.<br /><br />Thank you for finding that first poem, by the way. That was helpful. I only wish I could have found another source for this second one. I'm not certain the author's initials were G. P. The surname might have started with "D" but the printing was hard to determine.<br />Jacqi Stevenshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03471698670217119444noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5034998384799920884.post-49065797796789948152012-08-30T16:51:04.154-07:002012-08-30T16:51:04.154-07:00Such a profound poem - it says so much with very f...Such a profound poem - it says so much with very few words. Do you suppose that if George Prentiss wrote this... he did so for Daisy? Could Catherine have known him?Intense Guyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08441598926026727682noreply@blogger.com
