Koala

Koala 
The koala gently sleeps 
Silently slumbering up a tree
Gently sleeping until they wake 
Then the eucalyptus they chew
Eating for an hour or two

Getting the water they need
From they food they munch
Without needing to heed
Of what is going on below
The koala is eating quietly

When sadly the fire comes along 
The koala needs to hurry away
So it doesn’t get injured 
Fur covered with ash and dust
It escapes safely away
