Your poem brings back memories of when I lived in the mountains of California a couple of years ago and we had to evacuate for a week. I wrote a poem on FS called "Mountain on Fire." Frightening thing.

Your picture selection is perfect for your words. I enjoyed your poem for its message not that I like poems about destruction. I like that you capitalized the first letter of each line to make it stand out. I like the internal rhymes: pods/odds days/phase and the many others. I see no changes. Good job and good luck in the contest.

The positive aspect of this destructive fire was the incredible spirit of those fire fighters. Thank you for your wonderful review and good wishes.
Comment from Dobson
Some great use of verbs in the first stanza - gutting, shaking and slamming really emphasize the force of the wind and bring noise and confusion to the poem.I think the word 'consternation' is not strong enough to convey emotion.

Thank you for your detailed revue. We were in the path of this fire last night and , believe me, we were filled with consternation.

Those fire fighters have one of the hardest jobs. I give them my total respect and thanks to what they do. A very nice acrostic poem. Well done! Les
