FOREST....

Flames have gone now,
leaving behind a trail of ash...

The dried woods ,a casual traveler, a half smoked light tossed into the bushes...
the slumbering night woke up to a raging wall of fire,
Caught by the roots of life,flames leapt onto her waving boughs,
She burnt in silence...
Before long only her corpse remained,all her family too reduced to cinder,
the fire raged on,
consuming tree after tree,they fueled the advancing army of fire..
When the amber rested all that remained was ash,dust and death...
A Thousand hapless victims massacred by one act of non chalant thought...
D forest stood mutely...
