Poetry writing using an existing poem

A good way to get started is to imitate someone else. Many young sports players base their practice on a hero that they watch on the TV! Look at the poem below. You are going to write a new poem BASED on this one. At the end of your poem you would write: 'based on the poem The Storm, by Ashok B Raha'. By doing this, you avoid accusations of plagiarism!
