A Message from our Guest Editor, Martin Parker

Storms can arrive in many forms, bringing thunder and lightning, torrential rain, blinding snow, scouring sand, or waves of emotions. They can cause havoc and turmoil, or cleanse the air and nourish the land. Their format and effects can be as varied as the poems and other works in this collection that explore how people and elements of nature weather the events both external and internal that shape the history of the many worlds we inhabit.
