The picture chosen was very effective. The white gray and black colors convey the
intensity of the storm overhead. The word BOOM written in all caps worked quite well. You could really swap the lines of the poem around in any order and have the same meaning. Did you intend to do it that way? If you did very clever!

Great poem, conforms to the specified format. You have, in so few words, created the scary atmosphere of a thunderstorm,
My best wishes for the contest!!

Wonderful-- Rhymed 1-6-1 writing -- prompt entry for the Contest.
Good rhyme that doesn't sound forced. Nice presentation and imagery. I suggest you change the title to 'angry nature'. Good luck in the contest.

A good attempt to fit as much as possible into a mere eight syllables. My one thought is that your first and last words should be swapped around. But each to their own!

Excellent! Atmospheric, filling the senses with noise and darkness! I like this 1-6-1 enhanced by the image and fulfilling the brief with accurate syllable count. Well done and good luck! Debbie

Hello fellow writer. I was taught to count to seven after a lightning strike, for every mile away the storm was when the thunder clap came, so when the lightning and thunder came simultaneously, it was deafening, it was terrifying, and it blew up our television!
Your picture is perfect for this poem - and the poem encapsulates the experience - though for us, the 'boom' was in 'the room'!
My mother was terrified of storms, but I love them -she certainly experienced gloom whenever the possibility of a storm occurred.
Thanks for this explosive poem!
Paul

I really like the artwork chosen to illustrate your short poem.
Much conveyed in only eight syllables: the intensity of the storm and the gloomy aftermath for the Speaker. Rod
