Thunderstorms (Acrostic)

Tornado carrier

Hurricane cousin

Unannounced or predicted

Noiseless at first

Darkening clouds

Electrifying charges

Rain and hail

Strong winds

Temperature drops

Orchestra of drums

Rumbling and roaring

Moving quickly

Silence again.

Author notes

This was inspired by a really good or bad, depending on how you look at it,thunderstorm we had last night.

    Muy Bueno

    Nice job Star, ggod to see you writing again, have missed it. As usual you write a strong acrostic, haven't done one in awhile myself think I might give it a whirl tonight, who knows.

    Thank you also for the kind words on my last posting, it is different but it seems to work, no?

    Anyway TTYL my friend,

    Eyec

    Wow, i love thunderstorms. Good to see a poem based on them! You can definitly add to this in the future because i can see so much more potential from this. But very good description and short lines adding affect.

    Personally I love a good strong thunderstorm and you have done well in penning the exact aspects of such a strom. They are a beauty in my eyes that nature grants upon us. Though I understand that many care not for them they still hold a great power and should be respected all in their own right. I believe they have a rejouvinating power about them that just makes them that much more beautiful. Nice Job!

    it's good for an acrostic, i'm usually not a fan but yours was pretty solid, plus you do a great job of describing a thunderstorm and don't seem to struggle for your acrostic to work, you're probably looking one of these:

    Excellent!!

    This acrostic poem is awesome! I really enjoyed this poem. I’m amazed by thunderstorms. I like watching them when they happen. You described a thunderstorm quite well. This is a great poem. I love it.
