On the Verge of Explosion

Rolling clouds
over ominous waters,
telltale signs of a storm
brewing in a distance.

Old, gnarled, brittle sticks
cringe in terror
at the thought of destruction.
Nature's fury boiling...

    Outstanding

    There is something very beautiful about a storm brooding in the distance and you capture this perfectly in this poem. What really stands out here is the imagery- strong and intense. Congratulations on the trophy.

    The image puts me in awe. I'd love to capture the environment in such a state. Your poem animates the image very well, something I appreciate. Love the break and personification of the sticks to drive home your view.

    Very well done!

    Best of luck in the contest!
