Charcoal City
Roadrunner orange glow
Unrelenting wildfires devour homes
Inside smothering grief
Only memories remain.

Dear Nigel,
I just read your poem "Charcoal City" and was deeply moved (inside smothering grief") by its powerful imagery (roadrunner "ablaze"). The way you capture the relentless nature of wildfires (in L.A.?) and the emotional aftermath is striking. It's a poignant reflection on the impact of these disasters. Thank you for sharing this evocative piece.
Best regards,
Rolph
