est Fires
Someone dropped a burning match
Unheeded by the way,
It caught on fire some underbrush;
Its user did not stay.
From grass to brush, from brush to tree,
So stealthily it ran,
That no one ever guessed or knew
Just where that fire began.
Someone built a campfire
And failed to put it out.
A breeze came and quickened;
The embers spread about:
And soon the woods were blazing.
The fire spread and spread;
The trees that took long years to grow
Stand blackened now and dead.
Someone saw a little fire
As he was passing by.
He did not stop to put it out,
He did not even try
He had not started it, of course;
He had no time to spare;
That it might start a forest fire
He did not even care
