    Very good poem. It definetly describes the weather here. I really liked the lines
    "A sprinkle here,
    And a sprinkle there"
    It made the storm seem somehow gentle.

    The imagery created here was wonderful. I really loved how the storm was described, and then everything went back to normal, seemingly as if it didn't happen.

    Nicely penned.

    That was really good. I loved all the metaphors you used. The flow was good and the imagery was great. Maybe think about a better title though. Nicely done 5/5

    Imagery was extremely cool and vivid...stayed focused and consistent throughout with the idea of the storm. The beginning definitely set it up and the descriptions were excellent. Cool job.

    Clouds roll in from the east,
    Across the violet sky,
    Like waves out at sea.
    ^So glad to see the simile has not died out!

    The thunder rolls,
    And the ground quacks,
    As lightning of purple,
    Flashes across the dark sky.
    The wind picks up,
    And tree branches bend,
    Till they nearly touch the ground.
    ^ Great imagery here although the commas aren't necessary at the end of every line.

    Then comes the rain.
    A sprinkle here,
    And a sprinkle there.
    Then it comes with vegans,
    In slanting sheets,
    So thick that none could see.
    ^ Again, the imagery here is good. No critique for this stanza :)

    Then just like that,
    The storm is gone.
    And all is still,
    And fresh once more.
    ^ Perfect ending. As the storm ends and the mood of the poem changes, so does the structure.

    5/5

    You have a lot of talent for free verse.
    Again, the imagery was amazing.

    Lil prob-
    quacks,.. the ground is a duck?i thnk you mean quake.lol

    But thats about it. it flowed very well and it was very descriptive. it painted a great picture in my mind. whats a vegan? lol.. thats the only part i do not get. i also loved how it just stopped, and everything kind of went back to the wqay it was. as though it never happened. i think this has many deeper meanings..

    Good job.
