Ablaze is a Fire



Ablaze is a fire,
In a fury and a rage,
A Hellish inferno taking place.
 
The burning did not cease ,
In fact the forest was close to deceased.

Conquered by the wildfire,
Submitting to its supremacy,
The forest spoke for the last time:

'Ashes to ashes and dust to dust,
Watching our world as it combusts.'

And then the barren land bowed in silence
towards its tyrannical ruler.
