Again, I won't criticise the language of this poem, if it needs it. For me, all that matters is the feeling behind it. In that way, it worked for me. Read it aloud - it flows so well, and the rhyme (what there is of it - and it's carefully placed) and rhythm are beautifully matched to the mood.
Okay, then - just one small thing: 'And sigh a moan'. Not sure about that line. Maybe that needs reworking. What do others think?
