It birthed several summers ago
as the undergrowth grew into a
carpet of flammable fuel, waiting
impatiently to explode.
On Saturday February 7,2009,
explode it did, into a holocaust
of unprecedented death and
destruction. Lest we forget.
Thank you for this Jerry. Lest We Forget so necessary for someone as caring as you to put it on here for all to see. Extremely well penned as usual! Karin Anderson
