The roar of the crowd filled me with anxiety, 

The koalas climbed back up into their trees

And some ran away

It was a long walk from home, 

Which was no return today

All families had started evacuating,

From the big red monster swallowing trees

It wasn’t long before we heard the sounds of wailing sirens 

This gave us a bit of hope for our homes 

We all walked until we saw these big structures, 

Which filled up all the land 

Months had passed living under a tree

I wanted to return home to my mama and papa 

I return back to my new destroyed home 

No fresh soil, and no mama and papa

We untied in a space full of greenery 

We chased each others around trees 

Eating leaves and grass

We were finally free from death 

Peace, calmness, stressless
