As the scurrying clouds clashed and broke
Sparks of light cut instant pathways
Thunder stamped across the darkening sky
Like an enraged beast, violently hurt

p.s. i wonder what PH's darkness Robert's comment refers to. hmmm? i DO have some ideas. bri: (
(cont.) AND glossy leaves giggled...gorgeous! ! ! darn! the ONLY suggestion (to maybe make it a LITTLE better, in my eyes at least) : use Sighed deeply, not deep. to MyPoemList ASAP (As Soon As Possible) ! ! ! a wonderful treatment of a 'downpour', its cause and consequences! ! bri :)
Thank you Bri for your comprehensive evaluation of my poem! Thank you for your suggestion. I will change it to 'sighed deeply'!
after reading accident of a collision, i 'had to' reread what came before it, in order to understand. yes, the clouds collided! ! ! VERY NICE way to put it! and i can picture now: the sky's bosom heaving. nice bosom, Ms. Sky! ! my, my! ! ! perhaps i can soothe your pain? ? ? Holding hands, from heaven's heights, ......lovely alliterations attend this poem! (cont.)
'The grass and plants had a passionate romance With this spill out from sky's seamless heights Drunk with heavenly elixir, the thirsty earth lay content And glossy leaves giggled, washed clean of all the dirt' - beautiful imagination, soul soothing!
Wow Ma'am, amazing flow of poetry pouring gallons of wet monsoon touches over the rain washed heart. A timely gift for the summer burnt heart of your readers, thanks for this lovely storm. Enjoyed being wet under it.. felt like throwing the umbrella of home sickness. 10++++++ Subhas
So delighted by this beautiful comment Subhas.....! Your words have touched my spirit like a cool shower....! Thank you so much!
An amazing description of monsoon showers. Rich in thoughts and vocabulary.
wow! valsa. your dramatic description fits well the subject and resonates with me—this is the kind of demonstration we experience here in what we sometimes call a male rain (as opposed to a gentle female one) . we had one just a few days ago in which we got about an inch and a half of rain in a relatively short time and required about two hours of my time the next morning cleaning the debris from the onslaught. well written! -glen
Thank you Glen for your sweet comment! If I borrow your term, we are having 'male rains' every day..... too much of it, making even human habitations submerged!
Thunder stamped across the darkening sky Like an enraged beast, violently hurt just superb simile but hurt not speak not many poets are a kind of a self lot take care West and East can never meet
Thank you for your comment dear poet friend! Sorry I didn't understand the latter part of your comment!
Wow, what a wonderful nature write. It vividly depicts the power of nature. In an instant it gives and lengthens life and.on the other hand.it drastically takes away or shortens life. Beautifully crafted write with compelling imagery. Each stanza of this piece of work stands out.10 ++++ On to my Poem List.
Thanks a lot Rose Marie for your highly encouraging comment, also for the honor of sending this to your poem list!
The rain and wind give life but also take it away. Magnificently penned. Very descriptive, could hear the thunder and see the lightning from my ship.
So are you still on a voyage? Thanks a lot for reading and commenting Captain Cur!
Being restricted to write only a few words, I opt to submit my comments as a poem Nectar of LOve. Anyone, interested may read it.
Storm's effect is on things large and small. Even the little thing is not left out in the beautiful poem.
Dang, girl, you just had me out in the most violent rainstorm ever- -I am a wet bedraggled mess- -sopping wet and in a disarray from those violent winds and teeth chattering from fear as well as the cold. Excellent writing to put your reader into the scene like that- -but the next time offer us a raincoat and umbrella, okay? 10+++++++++++++++++++++
No one can match you in your playfulness and vivacity! Your nature is reflected in your comments too! I enjoyed this deluge of words from your gifted pen......! I should have provided at least a rain coat if I knew that the sudden shower might leave you 'a bedraggled mess'! ! Thanks a lot for your sparkling comment!
A very descriptive write that captures the heavy drops of the storm, that not only nurtures the earth and sturdy plants but also destroys the more fragile. I enjoyed the rewarding visual feast that your poetry lends.10+
Thank you Simone! Thanks for stopping by to read my poems! Your words give me greater inspiration to write!
A fantastic inscription has been made on clouds, rain and nature with an marvelous beginning. The four lines of third stanza stimulate the mind and body to have a look to that particular scenery. It is a poem basing on metaphor relating to sweet and sour feeling. The grass and plants getting the raindrops as heavenly elixir enjoy romance where as the petals unable to make even a moan. A great write.10
Thank you Kumaramani sir for your detailed analysis of the poem and your final conclusion!
