Coming home Yahoo
Maybe not what’s there to find
Town is burned out yuk
Acrid smoke stink rot
Be aware bears may be there
Wildlife lost home too
How can I help you
Freezer in basement food spoiled
Strong muscles up stairs
Burned trees gnarled in wind
Buds replaced drops of black char
Pale green hint of life
Moaning throat tightens
Choke back tears for what was lost
Hug from friend see smile
Crying for dog cat
Will they know we still love them
Burst of fur jumps licks
Power gas water
Technician restores service
Done done and done thanks
Stop by for coffee
Tell your story heal the pain
Step up help neighbour
