Forest Fires

Forest fire engulfs a fleeing deer Ignited by some John Doe. Raging heat and smoke, life denied Engulfing the innocents to die. Nature as no defence when fire comes to call tree or creature doomed to be turned into charcoal . At man's command acres burnt, life choked Nature wounded facing an uncertain crossroads Fire and flames respect no borders Buildings burning, engulfed barns Created by nature or man made all burn. blazing like a devils cauldron broils And just for the sake of a ember off a barbecue or the smouldering smokers butt. comp entry 22042016
