Dear Alchemy,
Thanks for taking the time to both read and comment. I do ofcourse see your point, and was aware of it as I was writing, however to change the rhyme scheme to 2 or 3 rhymes a stanza would really mean rewriting the poem and i am not up to that at the moment, it was quite hard work. The length is not really going to be a problem for people who are into the poetry of the past centuries, in comparison with much that Shelley, Wordsworth, Tennyson and Coleridge wrote it is quite short, not to mention Milton.
