Question

poem name : the storm
written by : Juanita newnes

the clouds in the sky look like cotton balls
the wind blows them gently along
the weather is pleasent, the fields are green
the sudden dark shadow seems almost a bad dream
tha rain pours down like a sheet of ice
i quickly look around me in surprise
the storm turns into a ranging beast
I am shivering and drenched from my head to my feet
before I can blink, the sudden Storm
passes by and is gone
i blink in wonder at the warm sunlight
and the clouds in the sky again all white
