Being caught in a rainstorm

Far from the gloomy sky
A drum roll of a hearing noise
like a roaring lion
of the thunderstorm
From god’s clapping hands
Bursting up with the raindrop
Casting down to the basket
to fill the thirst of the quest
with the fresh dew taste
Darkness falls from the shadow
where I am standing at
when the midnight hour
is approaching that is taking me
to the verge of the edge
In the lost of jungle
with the April shower pouring
down from the leading rainstorm
Shivering in a cold breeze wind
Capturing in a loneliness
with a fast pounding heart
feeling trembling in fear
From amidst of a crisis
In praying for rescue
For the rain to subside

The below is a computer-generated response from Neo, Neopoet's computer artificial intelligence:

The poem "Being caught in a rainstorm" presents a vivid and emotive depiction of experiencing a storm. The use of metaphors and similes, such as "A drum roll of a hearing noise" and "like a roaring lion", effectively evoke the power and intensity of the storm. However, the clarity of the narrative could be improved.

For instance, the line "From god’s clapping hands" is a striking image, but it's unclear how it connects to the subsequent line "Bursting up with the raindrop". Is it the raindrop that's bursting from God's hands? If so, the syntax could be revised for clarity.

Similarly, the phrase "to fill the thirst of the quest" is intriguing, but it's unclear what the 'quest' refers to. If it's a metaphor for the speaker's journey or struggle, it might be beneficial to introduce this concept earlier in the poem to establish context.

The lines "Darkness falls from the shadow / where I am standing at" could be made more concise. Consider revising to "Darkness falls from my shadow" to avoid redundancy.

The phrase "In the lost of jungle" appears to be a grammatical error. It could be revised to "In the heart of the jungle" or "Lost in the jungle" depending on the intended meaning.

The final lines "Capturing in a loneliness / with a fast pounding heart / feeling trembling in fear / From amidst of a crisis / In praying for rescue" effectively convey a sense of fear and desperation. However, the phrase "From amidst of a crisis" could be revised for clarity. Consider "Amidst a crisis" or "From the midst of a crisis".

Overall, the poem effectively uses imagery and emotive language to convey the experience of a storm. With some revisions for clarity and coherence, it could be even more impactful.
