When and Then

by Danny Feador



This beautiful ceramic mug is perfect for any event of the day. Your morning coffee, a hot chocolate or any other hot beverage you enjoy. The mug is glossy white and the prints come out beautifully and vividly on it. The print retains its quality and luster when used in both microwaves and the dishwasher.

    In our modern world of increasing technological development, Artificial Intelligence innovations are paving excitingly new pathways for human communication and exploration. For some, however, it still remains, to paraphrase Robert Frost, as the road not yet taken.

    Quite lovely mug but too costly for me considering the exchange rate here. Though the free shipping delivery, I don't think it worth the trouble.

    Just got the mug I purchased and I'm very pleased...!
    My concern was where you would edit ..what you'd have to not include as my poem is too long for all to fit.
    You used great judgement in it's preparation..
    Thank you so much!

    Beautiful mug but i can't afford it plus i don't think id want to wake each morning to coffee with memories of my poem with such sensitivity and sadness ....but still the mug is very nice, One day I will write inspiring poems and perhaps win one of these mugs, but for now writing helps me deal with ill memories, i need to forget and that's all good.

      Dear Poetry.com Team,

      I recently earned a coupon for a free mug with my poem printed on it as part of your reward program. However, when I attempt to use the coupon, I am redirected to a page where I can only view a Robert Frost personalized mug, but there is no option to proceed with my coupon for a free Poetry.com mug with my own poem.

      Could you kindly clarify how to properly use the coupon and ensure I receive the correct mug with my poem printed on it?

      Additionally, I would appreciate it if you could share whether other users have successfully redeemed this offer and if the free mugs were delivered physically.

      Thank you for your time and assistance. I look forward to your response.
      Contacting you directlyIy,i don't have $1 to pay so that my message will be prioritized but the mug is important to. The poem I want to have printed on it is dedicated to someone close to me.

      Hi there, We strive to include the entire poem on the mug. However, if the poem is too long to fit, we may have to print only an excerpt of it.

      Hi Alan, You were awarded two mugs as part of our rewarding program (well done, there!). According to our records and the delivery service, one was delivered to a parcel locker on May 6, and the other was delivered to a parcel locker at the same location on May 20. I've sent both tracking links to your account as a personal message.
