Fireweed

by Julaine Debogorski

Ditch flower

Life after fire/death

Pay attention
To what grows
In places
Where things
Died

When left undisturbed
Fireweed can grow
Up to 9 feet

Who are
Your forest friends
That you
Visit
Like a
Bumble bee
Finding nourishment
Sucking nectar

Fireweed is one of the first things to appear after a fire
It signals to the rest of nature
That it is time to begin to grow again
