wildfire

blowing wind changing directions
fiery of flames running wild
escaping the orange glow
fleeing to higher ground
fresh air can't be found
burning eyes dark sky
a nest in a tree
new borns learning to fly
falling to the ground
in the flames of fiery.
memmories are scortched
in a burning house
no one can escape
burning ground
fallen trees
smoke in the air
no one can breathe
loss of life
so hard too see
from a cigerette
thrown out a window

About this poem:

wildfires can and should be prevented throwing lit cigs out the window is just only one of the many ways humans are careless.
just think before you do or don't do.

Sometimes we forget that a simple act of carelessness, harms and can destroy nature....lost forever. niah9

cause the actions are so small people just don't think about it that way. don't just stop with wildfires. few years ago the state of california did a beach clean up they counted how many cig butts they pick up i don't no what the final count was but it was well over 200 thsnd think for myself that's it's own natural disaster with the wild life.
