Darlene De Beaulieu Poet Sonnet

A Fierce Thunder Storm

In the early evening
The sky had darkened
A roar of thunder heard
From the darkened sky
The wind was powerful
Rain drops poured slanted
Quickly, hitting the dry ground
The wind grew stronger
Forcing the rain drops
To fall faster on the windows
The wind got very strong
A powerful thud was heard
Something fell to the floor
She went to see what happened
It was a wooden clock from the 
    wall
It fell on the floor in pieces
Another thud was heard
A tiny object fell to the floor
It landed in one piece
She was very surprised
So she sat in the chair
She thought this is a freaky storm

Greg Gaul December 10, 2019 at 1:05 PM Darlene, I came on your page to see how you were doing, you've been so kind to me. Scrolled to this poem, ostensibly your best and I got stopped at the title. Then I looked at all the comments, must be a couple dozen or so. You should be proud. Well, there's a typo in the title, big as life! Ferice is spelled Fierce. You'd think someone would have said so. Before me. Friends pick up friends. It was the least I could do for you. Keep up with it, this poem shows promise. Be well. And thanks again. Darlene De Beaulieu December 10, 2019 at 2:00 PM Hello Greg Gaul, Thank you for telling me my mistake. Sometimes I type too quickly and misspell a word. I will correct it. Thank you i consider you my friend.Yes i am very proud of this poem.I want to wish you Merry Christmas.Enjy your day my friend.

Johnson Vdev November 20, 2019 at 8:43 PM Rain drops falling on window panes so related to me watching rains ..the storm that shakes us really freaky. Good write my friend. Darlene De Beaulieu November 21, 2019 at 7:43 AM Hello Johnson Vdy,oh some thunder storms are rough. Bringing down trees and causing damage to property. Thank you for the lovely comment. Have a nice day my friend.

Ann Foster October 31, 2019 at 8:21 PM Life is very surprising indeed. I am always amazed as somethings act one way, and some another? Most often making no sense to me at all. Loved your poem. Hugs. Ann Darlene De Beaulieu November 1, 2019 at 7:06 AM Hello Ann,it amazes me that a thunder storm with high winds can be powerful all through the evening. I love the sound of the wind. it makes me feel like I am by the water, listening to the waves come to shore. Hugs Darlene

Mubarika Sami October 22, 2019 at 1:58 PM I love this evocative poem. Especially the line Raindrops poured slanted. Well done Darlene! Darlene De Beaulieu October 22, 2019 at 5:08 PM Hello Mubarika Sami, hi! It was a very strong wind that knocked the wooden clock off the wall into pieces. Thank you for the lovely comment.

M. L. Kiser October 20, 2019 at 11:58 AM Quite an unnerving thunderstorm you have penned. I'd have had a cow if I lost a clock to just a thunderstorm. Darlene De Beaulieu October 20, 2019 at 1:38 PM Hello M.L Kiser, yes it was an nerving thunder storm.Thank yo for the lovely comment. have a nice day my friend.

Judy Ball October 20, 2019 at 12:18 AM My mother was terrified of lightening. I love a rainy night. Great job.

Thank you for the lovely comment. have a nice day my friend.

Kim Rodrigues October 19, 2019 at 5:38 PM Her calm meditation about the freaky storm. A powerful wind, slanted rain, large things (time) breaking, small things whole. Darlene De Beaulieu October 20, 2019 at 10:30 AM Hello Kim,yes she meditate. The wind was slanted and that wind was strong. have a nice day my friend.

Michelo Mweetwa October 19, 2019 at 9:25 AM I like this. I thought of small things that are usually overlooked and it takes thunderstorm for them to happen. Like keeping a family home together. My loose interpretation. Darlene De Beaulieu October 19, 2019 at 12:25 PM Hello Michelo Mweetwa, so nice to see you at my site. yes small things are over looked when it comes to thunder storm. It was also very windy that day that is when the wooden clock fell onto the floor in pieces. Have a nice day my friend.

Richard Lamoureux October 17, 2019 at 8:13 PM It sounds like it might be safer outdoors. You never know when a clock might land on one’s head.

Jenish Somadas October 15, 2019 at 11:35 PM The moral of the poem is you should always fix your clocks tight and make it small as possible.. I like the poem.. Have a nice day!! Darlene De Beaulieu October 16, 2019 at 11:08 AM Hello Jenish Somadas, this is a good moral.my friend's wooden clock has been on the wall for many years. A freaky rain storm with the wind blowing knocked the clock off the wall. have a nice day my friend.

Lindsay Laurie October 15, 2019 at 10:26 PM Hello Darlene … intense thunderstorms can make us apprehensive indeed. They can scare us at best or do intense damage at worst. Nicely described Darlene - Lindsay Darlene De Beaulieu October 16, 2019 at 11:23 AM Hello Lindsay,yes a fierce wind blew the wooden clock off the wall and a small ornament fell off the mirror in one piece.
