I suppose since it's already been handed in you might not be looking for reviews, but hey, I'm here anyway!
Wow. Your syllables, rhythm and all that were spot on. It was so easy to read and rolled off my tongue. I even wonder if the third and forth lines, plus eight and nine, possibly the second to last, might be split into two lines each? It would emphasise the fast but steady speed of the poem.
I liked your language, the words spin together magically but they aren't overly complicated.
My only nitpick is 'the darkness breaks...' I think some time passes between when the storm breaks and the storm ending, and 'the' doesn't really show this. But if you added an N so it becomes 'then', that would suggest that some time has passed.
I could visibly see the animals hiding and waiting for the sun. It's also a wonderful message and links to my favourite quote: The darkest hour is before the dawn. I really liked this, thanks for sharing!!
