Enjoyed reading your story. You write very well.

As one who has lost a wounded Kudu myself, I was especially interested in your outcome.

Congratulations

Into my heart on air that kills
From yon far country blows:
What are those blue remembered hills,
What spires, what farms are those?
That is the land of lost content,
I see it shining plain,
The happy highways where I went
And cannot come again.
