Small Purple Pea
By Marie L
The small purple pea emerges,
A beautiful burst of vibrant violet.
The tranquil breeze flutters around,
The country unaware
The sky filled with ash,
Without a warning,
Sparks roaring,
Fire forming an immortal wall
A distant crash,
Animals dash,
Trees collapsing in a flash
The siren blaring,
Water splashing
The soil sucked dry,
The forest’s silent cry,
The sky a dull grey
The breeze no longer blew,
The birds no longer flew,
The small purple pea,
All alone.
