A beautiful and thought provoking poem that centres around the imagery of a weather to brilliantly get the point across about storms we may face in our lives and how we can get through them (though sometimes it may feel barley) and we are stronger than we realise..captivated from beginning to end.

To me, I have always told my family that storms are like beautiful colored snakes. Some deadly, some friendly. just make sure you know which is which. Thanks for sharing. Nothing wrong with this poem.

My moms favorite saying was "this too will pass". Those words always comforted me in times of trouble because I knew it wouldn't last forever. You poem captures that idea beautifully. Thank you for sharing.

Hi Tina, no that's true. Storms never last forever and that goes for the storms as in weather as well of the storms we sometimes have to endure in our personal life. I liked you free verse poem a lot. All best. Ulla:)))

Nice job with the metaphorical comparisons. The flow is good as it s the tone. Nice use of language and word choices. The message is clear and poignant. Enjoyed the read.

Hello Tina Crute smiles to you using the word "storm" here as a metaphor for the "storms" of life is an excellent way to describe when one has an disturbing emotional feeling off happened in their life. Gert

Comment from Wabigoon
Tina--
I like your use of "storm" here as a metaphor for the "storms" of life but in that regard feel you're a bit too literal in your description of the "storm." You describe it almost completely literally. I feel the poem could use a hint as to what this storm is for you on a personal level.
Thanks

Cookie, I like your wisdom! It makes me happy that you liked my poem.Yes, I think God allows storms, even though He could stop them if He wanted...I agree. Thank you for the nice review:)
Comment from Coco Jane
Nice!
I like the ending, and the "brightly angry" image.
Storms can be destructive, but they--whether from Mother Nature or life's events--always bring a newness in their wake. Do you want to include that idea, or just focus on getting through the storm alive? (Just a thought.)

Maybe I will do a part 2 to this poem...After the Storm...not a bad idea. I thought of describing the fresh start after the Storm but it just got too long and involved. But thank you for the input and you may see a companion poem soon. Thank you so much!I appreciate your review!
