Little Inklings 2025

Blue, clear skies, Clear, open air, A perfect world filled with sunshine Until … The world turns black Gray smoke pours into houses Like a flood gushing into damp soil. It is like a monster that can devour your family, Your friends, and love. It won’t stop until it conquers everything in sight Everything you care about Terrible, harsh, hazardous things They dont care about their actions Smoke flying everywhere Strong, mixed feelings Habitats are destroyed Lives are shortened Where there was once a paradise Now sits a hole of nothingness It is a villain that steals the soul And captures the love Never letting it out of sight All because of these terrible Demented wildfires WILDFIRES By Eve Kingdon ’29 90
