I'm so out of my depth here.

I found Rhina's comments as fascinating as the poem, and I can only imagine what it must be like to be such an accomplished poet and such an intelligent reader.

I just want to say I enjoyed the poem very much, particularly things like:

"...when hope took luck in hand..."

and

"He never had much bother trying to fill
his creel and every season took a quota
of salmon from the Moy."
(and I loved the quota/Minnesota rhyme.)

Nope, no chopped liver here.
