The Firepits

In the suburbs The firepits Are lite to burn Whatever it it is- To burned stinks With the thick scent The air is thick Making it hard to breathe Firepits do not belong In the suburbs

Great to have if you have a holiday home in the country and you build one outside for cooking and warmth, but I agree with you, not in the suburbs, too much smoke. Lovely write. Hugs and Blessings, Jennifer.

Hello Panagiota, you are lucky not to have the firepits. It smells horrible. Yet you have an idea how it smells with the fires going on in Calif. How I wish you would have a good downpour of rain. Hugs Darlene xxxx-ooo.

No firepits in Malta. Rarely you find a fireplace with chimney. I prefer gas heaters. Take care. ~~
