A small flame is quick to ignite
and is swiftly extinguished.
Yet one spark
can be responsible
to set a whole city alight.
So quick can a wildfire encompass all
Destroying everything in its path

Good write D.
Thanks!
Wildfires and forest fires not even a spark required simply a piece of broken glass and sunlight, but you capture the imagery of the destruction that can be caused.👌
It still starts with a spark regardess of the cause of that spark.
Thank you!
Fire is a good friend .. but an absolute bugger of a foe ............................. they say keep your friends close, dont they .. flaming good post today Draven .. N
I see what you're getting at, but when I see a fire, I get the hell away.
Cheers.
Oh Draven a spark can indeed fire a whole forest - -what a haunt of a read about the danger of fire and the ravage it brings to all in its path. Thinking with you of those still trying to build homes again.
Thank you Fay
