54,000 California Acres Lost
54, 000 California Acres Lost
While you're snug in your pajamas
Or having French Toast,
Californians are being evacuated
before they roast!
The winds at sixty,horrific miles an
hour.
Torching homes and trees in beautiful
Sonoma County as they burst.
Wine country, Napa, closing all its
all schools,
As the Sonoma fire growls and is more
Than cruel.
Millions living without any power.
Please say a prayer or, three!
For those on the run, trying to get
free.
With winds at sixty miles per hour,
the footage shows,
I bow my head in prayer.
Not comprehending the such hot, red,
vistas.
But on my knees for my fellow
Californians in flight..
My unknown, brothers and sisters!
