A Forest Fire
by Richard L. Provencher

is a potpourri of
destruction
blackened toothpicks
in never-ending bunches
leftover road threading
around an
army of skinless trees.
Its breath of fury
captured a helicopter
and three
passengers along
with deer-mice-bird
carcasses
asleep forever
among 10,000 acres of
smouldering
at Trafalgar Nova Scotia.

Richard L. Provencher

Richard enjoys writing poems; many of which have been published in Print and Online. He and his wife, Esther are also co-authors of stories and a print novel. They are "born again" Christians and very busy in their church, Abundant Life Victory International, in Bible Hill, Nova Scotia.
