Excellent! Night skies aren't always starry. I liked the choice of adjectives. Personally, I would use a different title, since night storm is the last line of the poem and the poem is so short.

Thanks for your review and great suggestion. It does give away the punch line, doesn?t it? I?ll give that some thought. Much appreciated!

Night storms are wonderful. The stars show us how big the universe is, but storms show us how powerful it is.
Best of luck to you in the contest.

Hello Anon
Very good. "roiling" is a wonderful word - a well suited to your imagery and description.
If i changed anything (not that anything needs changing) I would replace the ellipses with a semi-colon and make the statement a single fluid thought. Just a personal whim I am sure.
I wish you well with this - I am off to vote for you right now...
cheers

Wow! Now there's a visual in only ten words that really didn't even need your pic to get your vision across! :) ;) But, I have to admit, that's an awesome pic to accompany it - great overall presentation!

Thank you for sharing and good luck in the contest! :) ;)

Awesome photo. It really shows how powerful nature can be.
The landscape looks a lot like New Mexico.
Your syllable count is good; 2-10-2 just as required.

Yes a certainly well written poem about the not so quiet and pleasurable aspects of what can happen during the night. Wonderfully descriptive words. Best of wishes in the 2-10-2 night sky contest.
