Dark and stormy night It was a dark and stormy night when she came to find me.

The stormy night The gray clouds had been threatening to rain all day‚ but it was only as she left work that it started to rain. The past few days had been horrible. She didn’t get a promotion at work and the only things she did gain were more hours and late nights. When she left the office‚ it was pouring like it never had before.

Desiree Adams The Poem “1943” by Donald‚ Hall was a very good poem. When I looked at the title I thought the poem was going to be about WWII because the year 1943 was during the time of WWII.
