New Beginnings

7% of the State destroyed
93% still standing
2,779 homes taken
9,000 homes were saved
75 people dead
8.166 million survived
17 firefighters gone
15,817 firefighters pull though
41,000 koalas were killed
330,000 koalas remain
Blazing, roaring, uncontrolled
Thick, black smoke
Breathing toxic pollution
Dumped 400mm water
The blaze that destroyed everything gone
Communities heartbroken
$500 million donated
Memories gone
But new ones created
I really like it better when it rains
