Valentine (From an old Lover)

by Jessie Pope

“Valentine (From an Old Lover)” is a poem by Jessie Pope, a notable English poet known for her patriotic works. While this particular poem is from her collection *Paper Pellets*, which primarily features humorous verse, this piece delves into a more poignant topic: the lingering emotions of a past love. Pope captures the bittersweet memories, the lingering affection, and perhaps even the lingering regret, that can arise when revisiting an old romance.
