As is the fate of us all, hopefully we stand sturdy and strong throughout life. Your poem provokes thought. I like that. It flows well and although the life of the tree is ending, at least, it is going out in a blaze of glory.

Comment from Sandra Stoner-Mitchell
Trees are so majestic, I love them. I've always had trees in my garden, and feel sad when I see them cut down. Some have been there over a thousand years, especially Olive trees. But our majestic Oak, is such a beautiful tree and it's sacrilege to cut them down. And then there is what they are doing to the Rain Forest. Breaks my heart. This is a fabulous poem, Santha, speaking as a tree to show how sad it feels. I'm sorry I do tend to get on my soad box when I see trees cut down because "they spoil my view" or "I want to grow flowers there" and many other selfish reasons. I'm off again, LOL! Well done, my friend. Love and hugs, Sandra xx

You have done an excellent job personifying the tree and its heat-giving demise. I enjoyed reading this and giving it further thought. It is always a tribute to any poem when its lines are meaningful to readers. Best wishes!

Thank you for sharing your CHOKA poem on the many wonderful things Trees bring to humanity everyday whether we realize it or not and take it for granted on a daily basis

Comment from June Sargent
This choka highlights a tree's death with a dignified purpose. However, rain forests being denuded for pure commerce gain is unacceptable. That creates a depletion of oxygen in the atmosphere. Some balance needed here.

Comment from dragonpoet
Hi Santha,
This is a good poem about the death and reuse of the tree from the tree's point of view. It shows the good and bad sides of fire. I like the color scheme of fire colors.
I think you should make the font darker, It is hard to read.
Keep writing and stay healthy
Have a great day and week.

Comment from Aussie
Across the World the hunger for wood continues; we are losing our Koalas because greed cuts down eucalyptus trees, the leaves are the staple diet of out Koala. Obviously, houses and furniture come before our native animals. Your poem said it all in the Choka style. Good wishes with your club entry. K xx

Comment from karenina
What an enthralling choka! Multulayered meaning as to our value from birth to death.
I'm reminded of "The Giving Tree" children's book, by Shel Silverstein.
We, like the tree, have gifts for the world all our days!
Perfect presentation as well.
