Roaring Fire
By Sarah Y
Published 5 June 2024
This peaceful forest is soon to be destroyed
this forest is getting toyed
the fire emerges,
firewood merges...
BOOM!
The fire roars with power,
imposing its strength on the forest
the fire eats the trees as a king
destruction in every direction
'What shall we do?'
the little birds chip
the embers crackle as if they're popcorn
the fire burns with glory and violence
as hot as the sun,
the catastrophe stays overnight
the animals cannot fight,
and I wonder if it's hopeless to save,
as the fire fades away...
