Comment from Debbie Pope
I'll be interested to see how well this nonet does in the contest. In many ways it is the paradigm of how to do one. The images and word choices are superb. I particularly like bullet the dust and stampeding. They evoke images of the wild west in the canyons. Very appropriate to me.

Melissa,
Most descriptive poem with very strong imagery. You paired your photograph to your words. Although I have never experienced that exact vision in my travels, one can just feel and see the scene you portrayed for this contest entry.
Best wishes in the voting.

Comment from June Sargent
I do believe you have a winner here! Such great imagery of sandpaper canyons. I picture Arizona in the rain season. Our son lived there for a few years. When it rained, it rained hard and the soil was red.

Your use of the nonet style of poetry works well even though you use the hyphenated word of Thund'rous storms. I love the topic and the message is clear. Well done!
Thanks for sharing your well-written style of poetry with all of us at Fan Story!

Very well done nonet here, Melissa. Your imagery is vivid, word choices fit perfectly to the form, and the tone is one of welcoming desolation if that is possible.
Wishing you great luck with the Contest Committee. :)

This is a great nonet for the contest, Melissa. Your choice of picture is the perfect accompaniment to the story you tell. "Sandpaper canyons" is a lovely descriptive term for the desert landscape. No criticisms or suggestions. Best of luck in the contest.

Loved this. I'm currently out of sixes but am going to try to fan you to recieve more of your poetry. I liked the action of the rain. Using the word bullet gave such a visual. This was so visual and evocative. Thank you for posting this. Gretchen

Comment from Paul McFarland
Very nice nonet poem, Melissa. This is a tough prompt, and you have pulled it off. "Sandpaper canyons" is a great term, and "bullet the dust" is a unique phrase.

Comment from Goodadvicechan
The pictures shows warnings of heavy stormy rain.
Your poem is well written ( Sporadic raindrops bullet the dust warn of dark, enraged
storms ) to describe the weather like the picture.
People can use Canyons and sandpaper to create anything.
Thank you for sharing
