Deciding on Deleting a Few Stanzas

    In reviewing "Thirty Years No More", I'm now inclined to delete stanza 10 & 11 and possibly 12. It just seems a bit redundant to me now and doesn't really add substance to the message I wanted to convey.

    When you have a chance, could a few of you look at it and see if you feel the same way. Don't let the number of stanzas scare you, they are short ones!

    Greatly appreciated.
    Cheers!

    Any takers willing to comment? Honestly, it shouldn't take too long. :)

    It really is up to you but I don't think you should delete any of this. I don't usually say this about long poems but in this case it worked very well. Usually I lose interest but it all fits togethor so wonderfully here. Just my opinion, go with what you feel is right

    Thanks. When I first wrote it, I felt all were necessary, but you know how it is when you read again later on ... you always want to make changes, and I thought perhaps it was a bit lengthy. Thanks again for taking the time. :)
