This is a very interesting and well written Nonet you have penned about the hurricane. You used very good descriptive words and very good imagery from the art work you chose. Thank you for sharing. Blessings, teri

Comment from Terry Broxson
This is an excellent nonet. I think a poem like this is hard to write, but you made it look easy with a nice flow, pathos, and a message your reader can understand. Very well-done. Terry.

Comment from Jasmine Girl
I wrote a similar one for this competition. It's so sad that Ft. Myers was totally destroyed by Hurricane Ian. I just visited there last February and saw many beautiful birds at Sanibel island and I saw dolphins jumping when I looked down from the condo balcony.
Well done and good luck.

A very powerful nonet, detailing the power of nature's detruction, which despite all our technological power we cannot contain. I found your description in the second half of man's impotence particularly fine. Kate xx

Thank you very much .May I ask a doubt.One person suggested that 'ruins' is two syllables? since I am not a native speaker I would like t clarify it .But no body else did.

Yes, technically it is two, but as it wasn't a contest entry I didn't want to be pedantic. If you want technical perfection you could replace it by 'shards' (which has a beautiful sense of jagged, sharp destruction all it's own). Kate xx
Comment from Michael Cassar
The ending syllable tells it all. The suspense predicted forecast and delivered by nature is summed up in ruins. Ruins rather difficult to fathom and describe. A cool poem describing softly massive destruction. Good luck.

Comment from Gloria ....
You have successfully illustrated the destructive forces of a hurricane with strong verbs and nouns. Also written within the nonet form.
My only suggestion is to centre to work to emphasize the V shape requirement of the form.
Wishing you great luck with the Contest Committee.

Comment from Sandra Nelms-Ludwig
This is a good nonet poem. The message is clearly presented in sequential order. The text size could be a bit larger for my eyes. I love you ended the poem with the one-word line "ruins". That is powerful ending and sums up the destructive nature of a hurricane. Although the visual is abstract, the movement in it fits your poem. Thanks for sharing.

Comment from estory
This was the perfect form for this, this tight spiral of images winding in on itself, shedding substance until there is nothing left but...ruins. You had the perfect word to end it. I also liked the image of the high tech man at a loss here, his technology swept away by the power of nature. estory

Comment from Wendy G
Powerful and striking Nonet about a hurricane, and I hope you have not been hurt or damaged by the recent one in the US. In Australia we pronounce "ruins" with two syllables. Perhaps in the US it is acceptable as one? Best wishes for your entry in the contest.

No There was no storm here in India where I live .I wrote about the Florida one. I am not sure about 'ruins' since I am not a native speaker of English. May be In US it is accepted since no one else had raised that ...Thank you very much for stopping by .
