Hello Paula,

So, the phrasing is not natural for me. Yeah, there are certain special phrasing effects that one can do within iambic pentameter, but in this poem it sounds like you are fighting with iambic pentameter, and then rhymes on top of that makes everything sound so ... exhausting.

It might be useful to rewrite this in blank verse.

Yeah!
