Nature Is On The Attack

In Australia Nature is on the attack
In parts hundreds of kilometers of countryside by her burned black
Wildlife and domestic creatures in their thousands have died
In fierce flames that have ranged far and wide
For those in the path of Nature's anger nowhere to hide
Human lives lost and homes and buildings destroyed
Though of fighting fires feeling quite tired
Firefighters for their bravery ought to be admired
In the flames by by so many people so much has been lost
Nature's anger comes at a huge cost
The warnings of environmental scientists the government choose to ignore
But in fire shattered human dreams no points for them to score
In Australia Mother Earth is suffering today
Nature's destructive power is on display.
