There is a lot of imagery in this poem. You could easily picture yourself in the setting and listening to the rain. I thought it was a very nice poem and makes you feel at home.

Thank you, Raul, for the review and shiny six stars. They are both appreciated. I doubt that many people today have any idea what a feather bed is. I haven't heard of anyone using them for years. Willie

A feather bed, the roar of a fire behind a screen, but most of all the ping of raindrops on the tin roof. I love that sound, but it's sometimes hard to hear on a house roof. And thick windows present another barrier to this pleasant noise that can put me to sleep.

nicely done reflections on a childhood memory. I like the use of handwriting for this poem. It works well. the narrative is great, the images sharp.

Wow! What a gorgeous poem. The imagery is so vivid and soothing. I love a good rainstorm while being nestled peacefully in bed. I haven't experienced a good rainfall and thunder storm in quite some time but was able to briefly relive one through your words. Congratulations on this exceptional poem.

A very interesting poem of remembrance, sparked by images and sound.
-You get beautiful movement and imagery of the limbs of trees in this poem, as well as sound of wind through the trees, contrasting with rain on the tin roof.
-Nicely structured poem.

Excellent poem about rain and thunder. I like the sound, also the smell of rain. Good rhymes that don't sound forced. The meter is melodic. I like the overall presentation. Your descriptive words flow well expressing clear mental imagery.

I have a few minor suggestions for this excellent poem. There is no comma needed after "proof," line 10. Especially if there's a rain, raindrops don't fall "in perfect tempo." I'd choose something like 'Nature's drum rolls.' In addition, "...feather bed" is usually one word. Going beyond these small complaints, this is a nice, gentle poem.

I like the idea behind your work. Great use of detail and it takes you(the reader) back to when they were a kid because it is a familiar feeling for lots of people. When I was a kid I loved when it rained.- I was one of those kids who loved to jump in puddles. Haha. The font style was a little different, but overall the poem was a pleasure to read!
