Dear Nel, I see you've followed Bri Edwards suggestions.. good, now the meaning of those lines is more clear. Your poetry is an interesting one and this poem as well, with a very good imagery, even if you have to pay more attention in the construction of the sentences. For us (me too, as an Italian) who are not native English speakers, it is not so easy to translate in proper English the exact sense of our thoughts, but surely you're on the right track
