    Beautifully written Cara:)

    This poem affects me personally because I have friends there...I am so very worried:/

    Thew thing that hurts me most is that they said on the news that the fires were lit by people:/

    Last year, in Greece the big fires were also caused by people who wanted to burn down the forest, just so they could start building hotels on it:/

    I hope the perpetrators will burn in hell themselves:/

    Hugs dear friend,

    5/5 Ingrid

    A beautifull doublet , i simply love the simplicity and the clarity of this piece . flow was excelent and the rhyming was great . structure wise i can not coment on this piece.

    everyone lose things in this life. what we lose is more than what we keep in this life . but sometimes a little thing we keep mean to us more than all those others .

    sometimes a little something beautifull
    will seem to someon soo wonderufull
    and he will keep it next to him at hight
    and it will mean more than the sunlight

    you have my vote

    Excellent. Somehow you have captured fire as if you had lived through one. Fire is the thing I fear the most and I hope I never have to go through what those people are. Everytime I hear about wild fires, I pray for those people and pray for rain or something to stop the death and destruction. 5/5

    Hey Cara well done on an excellent poem , i wrote one last year about the fires here in south africa which by the way are blazing again, over 200 of them.
    I have been following the Victoria fires on the news and pray the people of the area will stay safe, though i'm aware of all the lost lives already.
    Well done girl

    This dedication is beautiful and I'm sure it means a lot to everyone that lost everything in those fires. This was an emotional piece, the words really portrayed the message you were trying to get across. 5/5

    This is an honest yet beautifully tragic dedication to those in the bush fires. It's always difficult to base poems on real events as it sometimes distracts the writer from writing a poem, not just stating what happened, and loosing that poetic touch. But you have both here, the imagery was great, the rhyming worked, and you should be proud of this piece. Well done you!
