'Cause That's What We Aussies Do

Comment from Ricky1024
I read another post about the Australian fires so I googled it.
Between the koalas the kangaroos and all the other wildlife in that large continent there was over a billion they figured destroyed;
The koalas got hit the worst and most likely, are facing Extinction.
With help, like the buffalo, perhaps they can come back?
Well written and rich in Theme and Imagery.
Adjective and Objective Contents were both Excellent and Exceptional while Descriptive Measures aligned Perfectly.
Thanks,
Doctor Ricky 1024

Thank you Ricky 1024. You are correct, the loss of animal life is appalling and will take years to recover. As will the repairs to land and buildings. Your review is appreciated
Comment from Sandra du Plessis
A very well-written heartfelt report from the Koala. It is sad that those who scream green deal are often the cause of disasters like this. Luckily, it seems there were some animals saved to start a new generation.

Thank you Sandra. Your comments are spot on. Time, and climate kindness will hopefully bring about regeneration. I do appreciate your taking time to review my writing

I think this is a lovely verse detailing the events of the recent wildfires in Australia, as told by a koala.
Nicely done.
I don't know anything about the political references in this story, but otherwise well told.

Sharon I do thank you for stopping by and reviewing my work. I guess while Nature is wonderful and it keeps this old world going it is at times a cantankerous old master.

This is a very well written poem you have penned about your life as you travel. You used very good descriptive words and the red color with the white font was nice to look at. Thanks for sharing. blessings, Teri

It wasn't my life, it was the Koala's. The poor little fella and his mates are doing it tough right at the moment. But with a little help from those human creatures, it's hoped they will recover quickly.
Comment from Pantygynt
We in the UK get flooded out each year, and you get burnt to cinder. Then each year up goes the insurance. I suppose if you live on the San Andreas Fault you learn to live with the earthquakes and of course when they occur, up goes the insurance. In Lebanon its war and, ye you've guessed it. Up goes the insurance. It occurred to me that what one really needs to insure against is the insurance going up.
Each night on our screens now we see your fires. It is heart-breaking.

That's a great idea except for one minor glitch. The insurance companies set the rates. Can you imagine how expensive those rates would be. Insurance companies have a habit of overpricing. Thank you for reviewing my poem. I really appreciate you giving me your time
Comment from Bill Pinder
I enjoyed this creative writing about seeing the Australian wildfires from the perspective of the koala bear. I like how you presented the commonsense message in a creative way. Praying for God's best for Australia.
