Thank you very much. It was actually one of the easier poems I've
written, though a suggestion from Master Ihon improved it considerably. I had
to remove a really good line to fix a structrual flaw. It felt out of place
when I wrote it and when Ihon commented on that same verse not fitting with the
rest of the poem I knew it had to go. I'll have to try and work it into
something else.
