Storm

Storm

A Poem by Hiro
"

A storm within that leaks out to wreck havoc outside.

"

Sometimes

It boils the sky

A dark raven color

Giving its grim warnings

Inch by inch

 

Sometimes

It comes out of the blue

(If I may insert a pun)

A moment: Not a cloud in the sky

Then next: Torrents knocking down branches

 

The air always smells the same:

That stuffy smell of fresh anger and turmoil

Erupting like a volcano

Hissing as it hits hot gravel

 

You take it,

You take it and you wait

For the storm to calm

Waiting for the sun to peek

Between the clouds

Smiling, shining,

Full of bright light and laughter

 

You take

The daggers falling from the sky

The wind that rocks you around the block

Dodge branches and trash bins swirling in the air

 

You take it,

You take it and you wait

For the storm to calm

Because you know that

I am as trapped inside

As you are outside

In the storm

Lovely rhythym.
I honestly enjoyed reading this. This sort of weather compares with where I am living - rainy and grey and bleak.
Your despcriptions are great; your pun is funny (I love any sort of puns, by the way :p)
The grammar is fine; there are no corrections I need to make.
Lovely! Keep up the great work! :)
