I'm really glad, tom. 
HI Tom-
Thanks for taking my critique for what it was...a fellow fledgling poet's helpful hints. I in no way meant to be condescending or to imply what you wrote/write is not good. I truly liked your poem as was. You did an amazing job editing it.
What really matters is that You are happy with it!
regards,
Laurie
