When I tried a web search for this poem, I was expecting either a 'nil result' or to find the poem attributed to a well-known author. I most certainly wasn't expecting to find it attributed to Ann Borman, of Form 2C, at Drayton Manor Grammar School in 1971! Unless Miss Borman was a plagiarist, it was indeed written by her. It's called 'The Storm' and you can find it here:
