A TRIBUTE TO THE FIRE BRIGADES.

A TRIBUTE TO THE FIRE BRIGADES.

A Poem by Julie Grenness
"

A tribute to real heroes, battling bushfires in Victoria, Australia, as El Nino kicks in for the hot summer ahead.

"

How brave are our fire brigades?

As they battle bushfires each day,

Yes, it's  summer in Victoria,

Not exactly the Waldorf Astoria,

For all the fire brigades

Our respect they've totally gained,

Laying their lives on the line,

When the weather's hot and fine,

Burn, Victoria, burn,

El Nino's torrid urn,

Our noble defenders, each day,

Real heroes in the news, I say,

As they battle bushfires today,

How brave are our fire brigades?
