Notes About The Poem

Written 19th August, 2026 Double Etheree.
Resurgence
Wild, fierce inferno claims the ancient scrub,
Gossamer smoke hides the canopy,
Burning heat sweeps across the earth,
Blackened vault cracks in the blaze,
Red, hissing sparks ignite,
Blistered ironbark,
Forest of grey,
Scorched timber,
Silence,
Ash.
Rain.
Seeds burst,
Water pools,
Fresh leaves stretch out,
Wattle starts to bloom,
Susurrous bush awakes,
Fragrant petrichor ascends,
Harbinger of a vibrant spring,
Paperbarks becoming bathed in gold,
Effervescent rains wash the eucalypt.
