I like this one, it probably qualifies as a haiku, because you have written the excellent satori line, and it's about natural things, this is beautifully written, good luck, blessings Roy

I think if I saw a sky like that I would run for my life. I like this short poem and your choice of words when writing it. The word posse is a perfect fit in the poem. I wish you worlds of luck in the contest.

There is a dark feeling as the reader sees the dark clouds forming over the prairie. I like the word "muscled", it gives an impact to your poem, the clouds are powerful and will rain havoc on the prairie. You have a vivid use of words.

This is an excellent 5-7-5 poem for the nature contest
with very good imagery and art work to match.
I like the hard-muscled black clouds line.
Nicely done.
Best wishes in the contest.
