Bushfire

Burning gum trees at midnight
The flames fill the black, Smokey sky
Koalas fill an ocean as they cry
They hold their newborn baby’s tight
“run away!’ they scream
Koalas and Kangaroos
Then a human spray’s what looks like cream
Fluffy and white it puts out the flame
“are we saved?” the koalas exclaim
“yes, yes you are”
