The word imagery screams from this poem. I have never been anywhere near a hurricane yet that imagery made me feel as if I was experiencing one. I really enjoyed the poem written as always with excellence. 5/5 Ray S

Thank you for the kind words and especially for your ime in reading my words.

Excellent work, this was a pleasure to read. Colors and imagery were just bursting from your words and I could picture the scene in front of me. You really brought this poem alive, nice job. The flow runned smooth and I espicially like your word usage. It grabbed the reader and pulled them in, not one line was boring. I am nominating this for front page, it certainly deserves it. Keep up the great work as usual, take care.

Man, I'm sorry, I just saw I can't nominate it for front page, I think maybe because its too old? Oh well, just know its a winner in my view. :)

Royal purple clouds
Cloaking azure sky.
Rolling thunder peals,
Following lightning's spark.

*Aww this is so pretty. I really feel like you are talking about a painting or something, That's how vivid it is. Nice :) *

Roiling as a cauldron
Vortex, twisting, spinning
Greenish anvil cloud
Funnels, dipping, diving.

*I really love the words you use here and the alliteration is a nice touch as well. The flow is flawless. I love it *

Siren's claxon sounds
Alerting all who hear
Winds die, eerie calm
Softly the roar begins

*I like how each stanza has such strong imagery. You use it so well. It's not annoying or too much, it's perfect.*

Violence from the sky
Tornado touches down
Destruction abounds
Chaos defines the time

*I like how the surroundings are changing. But you still describe it in such a beautiful way. Lovely wording here*

Fluffy white clouds
Float in the azure sky
Silence fills the air
For now the storm has passed.

*This sounds so peacful and calming. I really loved how you wrote this poem. I'm glad I read this. Keep it up :) Nik*

Good flow and nice ending.
