The Regret of a Flower will leave you breathless, and somewhat speechless as it brings you to tears, laughter and self awareness. The glances into times past, society and the issues that plague is done subtly and not so subtly while drawing you into a world you would love to see. Gail Thornton does an amazing job at turning events considered mundane or controversial into art on the page; the visions grip allowing the scenes to play out clearly in your mind. It is easy to imagine a world that is innocent coming of age, and a not so innocent world suffering the consequences of actions not realized. Images of friends, children and warriors all combine to enhance awareness of this talented poet's command of the language as she paints scenes and conjures images others can only dream of creating. Never before has poetry been so captivating while gripping reality so closely. Love, loss and mental illness are all handled with a skilled hand to draw the feelings to the surface; reading "The Regret of a Flower" takes you through every emotion known to mankind; the intensity of each one is felt through the entire being. It is all on the line as this amazing book gives a glimpse into the heart, the soul of the woman behind its creation.
