Thanks for your feedback on the poem, very happy to hear your thoughts on it. The pacing was an issue I worked on, trying to get out of a pure rhyming word play and into telling more of a story in poem form. The flow and melody of it was important to get right.

As for the volume, there is one more control on the audio software I can try. I have the recording volume quite high but that hasn't seemed to affect it. I remember the very first attempt where i could hear my breathing too much and it was off putting. Because pf my lung issue I do breath deeply and sound out of breath a lot, so I needed to try to take that into account. So I got the recording level to a point where it didn't pick that up so much, but the end result is a low overall volume, which annoys me somewhat.

I have one more recorded poem to share, but before recording any new ones I will play around with settings some more. Tell me, do you know about Hz levels? Because that is the main setting I still have to look at. Pretty sure I did adjust that initially and that gave me problems, but not sure. It is set at 44100, but can go so much higher. I will Google that one next to learn more.
