A Tragic Story From Kinglake

So many sad and tragic stories from the ashes of Nature's fierce ire From places such as Marysville and Kinglake of the merciless fire That burnt it's way through woodland and town And blackened the landscape that was once green or brown. In Victoria's tragic fires many stories of heartbreak Such as the mother and father and their two young daughters and their dogs who died at Kinglake Such stories of tragedy lives on for years And in the hardest of hearts even can stir up tears. For families and relatives and friends of the fire dead only memories remain Of people they loved never to meet again And where the fires have been through only blackness today And that life must go on seems so sad for to say. A tragic story from Kinglake that was so sad to hear Of a family and their pets for them I've shed a tear Their life story in book form may never be told Suppose Nature did not wish them for to grow old.
