Tricia,

Fun little poem. Great choice.

Thanks!

0:27 - "and steeds were prancing" - I hear "seeds"

Your choice if you want to fix it.

I see the similarities to Richard Corey, but this one feels a lot less sympathetic.

Thank you - PL OK (the end silence was a bit long - around 7 seconds I think - but I'm not that picky.)

Hmm. I don't find Richard Cory sympathetic, other than to the narrator/townspeople.

Perhaps the different perspective (outside on R.C. and Miniver's in this one) makes the difference. We have no idea what Richard was thinking.
