I still cling to my objection to "bows", Glenn - and I agree with Jim that "bends" is the more appropriate word - but I concede that the former is more attractive than the latter. So it's a tricky one.
I still like the poem. (And I am a returning commenter too. I'm not sure what you should read into that. Maybe that the poem is successful enough to bring people back to it, even with such trifling points as mine.)
