The words of a poet, a survivor, a resilient human in a treacherous situation. You told the story of the storm, your neighbors, and your survivor spirit read to do it again

Excellent poem about bad weather.
The rhymes and meter are not forced and they flow well.
the structure makes sense, it draws on emotions and it presents strong images.

Not a lot else to do in the darkness. Your gratitude for your neighbours is palpable. A well written poem. Lovely colour palette. I would have liked an illustration to highlight your words too. J

The weather across the world has changed so much. I know some parts of the States have storm shelters in the backyard. In times of danger your neighbors thought of you and gave you light to write your poetry. Bless them. K xx

I am glad that your neighbors came to your aid. In times like this, our neighbors are valued for their kindness. It is also that they care for you to make sure you are comfortable.
Well-written "thank you" poem for your neighbors.
Best wishes,
Mary

I think that your neighbors have helped you during the storm without power in your home. Excellent work! No grammatical errors. Thank you for sharing!

This poem, Our Windstorm, captures both the failure of the electrical company to provide help, but the kindness and help of good friends and neighbors who rose to the occasion. Nice.

It is at times like these that we come to realize how important having creature comforts can be. Powerful storms can rob us of our creature comforts, Storms that attack our mental heath and well being, can be just as detrimental. Finding relief can be even more difficult and costly than repairing physical property damage.

Your words pay homage to your kind neighbors that helped you in this time of need. I imagine being without power for so long is difficult, I have only been without power for three days but it was in winter and very cold. Excellent poem to describe your thanks.
