Hi Tina, reading this poem, and your author notes I see you have had health issues. I am glad to hear they are over. This is reflected in your well written free verse - 'I seek a better place, away from this storm of pain.' A good descriptive piece that ends with optimism. Stay well and warm regards Dorothy x

Thank you for the review and the heartfelt thoughts. I really appreciate that. The storms are over for now, but they will come again as storms do, but I am stronger :-)
Hope its sunny where you are with no bad storms! Thanks a lot!
Comment from kiwijenny
My heart has faced a test,
and beat throughout
the storm's progress.
A victory earned!
The storm is dead!
And I am breathing!
I loved this and continue to live this as we all should do
Great job
God bless

Thank you so much! You are correct, we definitely ALL have storms! You are also correct...it leaves damage that we try to move away from. The Lord had helped me with that! Have a great day!

Hi Tina, I wrote a poem called Forgotten...
true love
never washes away
memories become a movie
never forgotten
only to be replayed
at a one seated cinema
the memories good or bad...can be put in storage in our heads and hearts...and we will move on...but there will be times those memories will find there way back...only to be put back in storage again...
and yes!!!! God has help me sooooo much in so many ways...I am so grateful he is in my life...you have a wonderful weekend...love xxoo

Thank you!! Your response about feeling like you were witnessing it, means a lot. It drew you in I guess.:) I hope you have an un-stormy day! Your review means a lot!

Comment from JanPerry
Lovely heart felt descriptions. "Sunshine dares a peak."
You have explored all the aspects of bad weather and hidden from it in a cave. It should be "your heart "beats" through the storms progress."
You could explore the idea that the weather is like the storms in life.

Thank you so much for your input, and I will make the grammatical correction. I thought it worked with or without an "s", but I think you're right. It sounds more active. I wrote this after some trials, so you picked up on that...it was a storm or two in life. Thank you again!

We all deal with storms in some way or shape whether actually weather or the stormy times in our lives. It is wise to keep in mind they will end, my friend~Debbie

Comment from Carla Trinklein
I wish I had a "6" left to give for this...it really spoke to me. I'm facing some weather myself right now, nothing external, more of an internal storm. Thank you for the reminder that the sin will appear again and I'll catch my breath.

Dear friend, Thank you for telling me how you feel and being real! I will say a prayer for you as I head to bed in a minute, if that's ok. There definitely will be some sun for you, but it has to be Gods timing, that's the problem. He has a different watch and calendar then we do...maybe I will write that song... I wish you the best, and a soon ending t your storm:) Thanks again!

Thank you for your prayers. I wish you continued success with your writing.
Comment from Gail Denham
A nice poem- well describing a storm and the havoc it can play with your spirit. There's a feeling in the air with some storms. They say dogs and some other animals feel a storm or earthquake or such before it happens.
Nice poem

Thank you so much! I am glad you could relate to it. I know animals do sense a storm. I have a cat that comes inside every time before bad weather! I like how you said it plays with your spirit...that is so true! Thanks again. have a great weekend!

Comment from karenina
The tone of this poem is perfect for the theme. Life itself is a series of storms and challenges--often we feel overwhelmed and yet somehow the sun breaks through yet again and we live to fight another day.--Karenina
