Er, dance not walk, or sing not talk. You get my point, Ed, do you not?

Francis' comments are well-taken here. I noticed, Ed, that you repeated 'red lace' five times in the poem when it's being the title would've been sufficient. Redundancy is one thing versifiers try to avoid to make the poem sing, not walk.

Good. Surprise ending. I suggest: stanza 3, add article: 'I caught a glimpse' stanza 6, unwarranted tense shift; should be: 'The past insinuated' stanza 10: 'another's' (not: 'other's')

This one is very well written. The RED LACE references all the way through make the writing and the story memorable. This writing needs no rhythm and rhyme because of those references. A very nice piece and one that carries a kind of interest with it. GW62
