Fire
Fire | Jackie French, Bruce Whatley
1 post | 1 read
One small spark brought fire awake, Winding like a small black snake, Fire flickered, fire crept, Flames snickered, bushfire leapt... Inspired by the bushfires that have affected many Australians, Fire is a moving and sensitive story of a natural disaster as seen through the eyes of a cockatoo. The fire mercilessly engulfs homes and land, leaving a devastating path of destruction.

No reading today, mostly writing and watching (too much) news. I clacked this out on typo. Note, you can‘t fix mistakes (hence that odd ‘x‘, which kind of works? Maybe?) Australia is 🔥🔥🔥 people and I am lucky and grateful to live where I do. #poem #writing #anxious
