I think that no other force in nature explains so well the dynamic of a fight like a storm does. Very well we written poem with good metaphorical expression.
Thanks for sharing.

Thank you for sharing this fine senryu with its imaginative imagery of fiery argument lighting up the room. I like the blending of nature's anger with that of of human nature. Well done! Debbie

That's so sad. The hardest thing about those "tempestuous storms" between a couple is that often there are kids who are fearing for their future as they hear the fighting of their parents.

    That's true. I thought about adding the kids but decided to leave it. So far, all the reviewers came up with the.children conclusion.

    Thank you very much, big sister 🙏 💙

    Love,

I like how your poem shares the tension of both the storm outside and the emotional storm within. The way you showed nature's fury and the couple's conflict is perfect. The word "tempestuous" sets the tone so well.
