windswept wrath
wreaking wanton waste
weaving woe

Well, well. Welcome winner.

I found this to be one of the best entries into the contest. Utilizing the "w" forming all your words was creative.

Nicely done all around, John

    Thanks, John, I'm glad you liked all the "W" words. My reasoning was to create a "whoosh-ing" sound, to try and convey the message of strong winds. I'm very happy you picked up on that! Based upon other reviews, it seems to be a "love it-or hate it" sort of thing.

That's an awesome picture. Very cleaver poem with every word starting with w. I'm sure its weaving a lot of woes for somebody!

Blessings in the contest. LaVonne

Had I six stars they would be yours. I lost my hat while reading this one. What a blow. Suck your socks right off your feet. Best to you.

The poem with the picture of a typhoon-like, or a hurricane
leaves an impression of destruction as it moves along its path. It certainly will cause flooding of homes or streets and fields and, perhaps, causing power outages along cities and plains where it passes.

    Thanks, Dom. Tornadoes are very scary things to witness, for sure! The terrifying wrath of Mother Nature's fury! I appreciate the fine review, my friend!

Amazing artwork, mystery writer. I'm having trouble taking my eyes off it.

Very clever 'w' alliteration to describe the awesome power of this tornado. Thank goodness I live in England.

Good luck, Ted

    Thank you very much, Ted. All the credit for that awe inspiring animation goes to NatureGirl. She allowed me to use it. I'm so happy to hear you caught the meaning behind the W's. I wanted to convey the sounds of wind.

    Thanks again, Ted. I appreciate it!

While the message of this three/five/three is good, the alliteration makes it seem really forced. In reading the poem, I felt like I was hit over the head with "w"
