The last stanza is 6 lines where the rest are 4 lines. It would be better if all stanzas followed the same format (# of lines). Five of the stanzas have a rhyming scheme to them, where the forth and last stanza do not, again all your stanzas would be better if they followed a same pattern (format). It is good though. A tornado disaster is not necessarily an easy thing to write a poem about. |
