The Sapling

There was an ominous cluster of clouds approaching.
A crash of thunder and a beam of light
Appeared and vanished.
Then,
A tree burst into flame and the belligerent blaze arises.
A pall covers the forest and the shrills of animals
Proclaim their
Agony.
Swarms of animals materialize from the flames.
Then in the distance, a hum
Promulgates itself.
Then,
A mist falls from above and the sound of
A dyeing fire becomes palpable.
Yet, the fire
Persists.
The infamous inferno falls to
The mighty blades above
And then
Silence.
The charred remnants of
Gallant beings stand
With their broken
Arms.
And there, the quintessence
Of the forest lies.
A truly pure
Being.
This individual will grow to be as
Magnificent as his fore fathers.
Others will also rise from the
Ashes.
A flame is then blown into the forest
Brimming it with life. Then
An innocent bird
Sings.
The sun illuminates overhead
And the scent of Pine fills
The warmth full air.
Rumble!
