Hi David,

I agree with Rick that changing the line in S3 is more than just a single line fix, but has added to the unity of the poem. I love the poem and find it very moving. And I love your signature wry jokiness at the end of S2, which, to me, adds to the poignancy by humanising the speaker. We do joke and self-deprecate even in grief.
