The Sky Is On Fire

The sky's on fire time to run is now too late to pray now-- time's up. The sky has turned black run for your life now, fireman too late for you now. the sky has turned red fire is over the top of the trees now, run.

What a brief but exciting poem. Its very brevity highlights the danger. " time to run is now, too late to pray now" tells the tale! Excellent!

Excellent example of how a poem does not have to be long to have impact. You have highlighted the power of nature. Too many treat it like a fireworks display. Hope you stay around on the soup for a while. Thanks for sharing David in NZ
