Thanks so much for sharing your experience in rhyme! I like the line, 'All I could do was write more rhyme.' I am so glad your neighbors were kind enough to share. A lovely poem.

Hello Jake,
This is an excellent poem in your own sonnet-form with the aabb rhymes.
Good neighbors are rare these days, but you certainly have some of the best.
There seem to be more violent storms than in the past. It is good to be prepared.
Glad to you you came through okay.
Best wishes.
Robert

Wow -it is really great that it is referred to as 'our windstorm' - the personal aspect of the experience and the fact of the activity that gave solace 'write more rhyme'- delightful!

I dint think it would be good if the power would go out, if, in fact, it wouldn't cause chaos on the face of the locality we live in. But isn't it good? That your neighbours come to your rescue and 'foes' up so to speak, well done, blessings Roy

Thank goodness for wonderful neighbors who come to the rescue and want you to help you out. It's the hard times that bring us together and show what people are made of.
Thank you for putting the story into verse and sharing it.

This poem really rang a bell, we lived in Pinedale, Wyoming many years, and loss of power was a regular occurrence there. In the spring it was the rain, in summer it was the wind, in winter the snow.
We called Lincoln Power, "Blinkin' Lincoln."
Good work,
irish
