Whisper of the Ashes
by Daniel C, Toronto, Canada, Age 17The green valley is burned by scorching lava
Saved by Rain
Regrows to the lushnessRegrows to the lushness
Reborn with beauty and vitality
The Green feels the heat descending rapidly
She bends towards the warmth, embracing her affection
Lava burns mercilessly once again
But the fiery temptress is defeated by RainThe Green still seeks the flames
Still yearns for her embrace
Yearns for the seductive touchBut the Green eventually finds Rain
Will never fall
Will never save her from FireAnd she will become nothing but charred
Grey ashes blowing across the once green valley
