Dark Skies (Acrostic)

Though the meaning/story behind the piece is extremely sad and heartbreaking, you added a touch of nature that shows the beauty of the world regardless of disasters and natural occurrences.

I always find that acrostics take away natural flow from a piece because it is so constricted and adding alliteration I would think would take that away that flow even further, but this is an exception, it is smooth and transitional, very easy to read, even with the complex words...draws to the uniqueness of this piece...I like the use of kettle skies, a very original image and way too describe a dark sky.

Loved this piece, certainly shows your talent...
:)

WOW! This is incredible Hannah.
Acrostics are difficult (at least to me) without the added constriction of alliteration too.

The poem flows rather smoothly, though with the differing alliterations per line it gives the piece a steady rhythm that adds to the effect of the tornado I think.

This is quite a beautiful way of writing about a tornado, and certainly unique. In a sense I suppose it is a beautiful thing only not the destruction it causes.

The second part brings such sadness to my heart - so many memories lost and possibly lives too (?) destroyed enough to turn them to dust (figuratively speaking but therefore unsalvagable).

Nice work.

Five/five
