Dear Ace,
Your post was so good you had to post it twice, as they used to sing about NY !
Thank you for the comment. The rhyme scheme happened merely cuz in the first verse lines 1 and 3 rhymed. I then tried to get all the 4th lines to rhyme too, and I'm glad to know from you and others earlier that this was not a distraction, rather that it worked pretty well.
Ace, that complaint seems to be one poets suffer from, or at least, they are willing to talk/write about it. I recently saw an old John Betjeman interview, in which he was asked if he had any regrets, and straightaway answered that he would have liked to have had more sex.
We are ploughing a famous furrow, you and I, even if it not the one we were aiming at !
Love Alan
