Poet,
This is an outstanding poem and an interesting approach to the Quiet writing prompt. What a gorgeous presentation as well as outstanding lines with
great imagery and smooth flow.
Loved this one,

Thank you so much for your time reviewing my poem and I am so happy that you liked it. I wrote after the storm we just had here in Washington.
Comment from BeasPeas
I enjoyed reading this poem of the storm, especially the first and second stanzas. Nicely presented and rhymed. I like riot/quiet.

Hello author
good way of telling us how you fond(quite) during a storm--
I hid my head beneath the sheets
( why not a pillow) it's like a bi ear muff)
Feeling just like a child

I am glad you liked my poem. The reason I used the word sheets is because of the flow. Pillow has two syllables and sheets has only one. Thanks for your review and kind comments.

Comment from The Boy Whodunnit!
You build up images well which helps the reader visualise and imagine themselves in the storm. An interesting emotional response as well, which comes through in your words.

Well done author. Beautiful swinging poetry, vivid images, and a fitting entry for this contest, I feel. I smiled at the line, 'feeling just like a child'. We do feel the most vulnerable when we are afraid, and I suffered with fear from storms. The thunder mostly, because it was often loud and unexpected. My mother tried to waylay my fear by explaining. "It's only Jesus having a load of coals delivered."
Oh how I loved the peace and quiet afterward.

I am so glad you liked the poem. We get storms like that in the fall. Thanks for your review and comments. They are much appreciated.
Comment from Curly Girly
Yes, some storms can be particularly noisy. That was the case back in Africa. I live in the south of NZ and here thunder is a rare thing. Most days it just rains and the wind blows.

Comment from Unspoken94
A marvelous poem and this is a great entry on the theme of Quiet.
Being a former Seattlite, I can relate to your storms. However, I would
suggest you consider changing the word, "gage" to "guage."
Forgive me, but it's gauge. -Bill

Thank you so very much for the correction. I did forget to put in the 'u'. I appreciate your review and comments. Yes Seattle did get a lot of damage this year but we had more here in Spokane.
