Lovely rhythm and rhyme! Strong, descriptive words that brought to life the elements of a destructive storm ... the before, during and after. This is a wonderful contest entry, and I wish you the very best.

Comment from Wendy G
A lovely poem, very vivid, and totally capturing the fury of a storm with realism. The image is a perfect accompaniment. The metre is not perfect, but I still think it is a great entry. Good wishes.

Thank you for this nice review. I knew that the meter was off, but I was happier the way it was then how I tried to fix it. Thanks again. :)
Comment from Dolly'sPoems
I enjoyed the smooth metre here and the storm that raged and a touch of the biblical too, I felt the wind and witnessed the rain within your words, a fine write and you fulfilled the brief here, the lull after the storm, love Dolly x

Comment from Michele Harber
Wow! This is a brilliant use of the contest prompt. My first thought, when given the word "quiet," is not a loud, violent storm, but you brought your poem full circle with the calm before and after the storm. Your rhymes are very well chosen, and your poem has excellent meter and flow. I love the comparison to "The kind of rain that Noah knew."
