Thank you for creating a Duo-Rhyme poem in response to the Potlatch. I was not familiar with the form and enjoyed your rhyme scheme and meter. I admired your use of personification and the reinforcing artwork as well. Cheers- Joan

I found myself in this midst of this fury. The picture and the intensity of the event are so masterfully captured that one can't help but feel they are a part of it.
You post so many wonderful depictions of life, nature and simple beauty.
Inspiring.

Isn't it amazing and scary what winds can do? I thought you captured their fearsome power so well in this piece, especially through words like "savage" and "uncontrolled" and "ripped and rammed". Excellent job with the duo-rhyme style! This was such a neat form to try out! :)

This is a very well-written poem! I love the flow to the words, and the descriptions of the thunderstorm. I wrote a poem about thunderstorms in fifth grade, maybe I will post that someday.

This type of verse is completely new to me, but the authors foot note explained its f ormat very clearly. ''Their savage fingers took ahold of everything they could enfold'' made the storm very real, and very alive. Very vivid capturing of this storm, and its destructive power.

Good job using nature as metaphor, I especially like the part that says "if only this had been foretold" Because many times in life we wish we could be warned about the bad things in our way.

-Nice image and presentation.
-Notes appreciated.
-Good job with the rhyme scheme.
-I like the poem--very good imagery
and alliteration to describe the storm:
"The wild winds blew wheree'er they may"
-A good conclusion.
