Burning Sunsets
Fires burn across America’s woodlands.
Ash floats into the air,
embers flicker in the smoke-filled wind,
and evacuees pour from inhabited areas.Disaster does not discriminate.
As animal and human scurry from the heated blaze,
many will lose everything, and some won’t make it…
Acres of black, charred land are wounds until nature heals:
resilience comes with a citrus sun and lavender sky.
Salute yet another sunset born from a fire.
