Climate Change: The Burning Issue

Fires ravaged vast areas of land across Australia during the last few months of 2019, and well into the start of 2020. Amanda D'costa, David Terelinck, and I felt that we could create awareness of what is happening around us through tanka. Numerous poets around the world joined in and supported our cause. During the months of February and March 2020, we raised a total amount of $1365 AUD ($880.97 USD). Thank you for your wonderful and wholehearted support. This amount has been donated to Port Macquarie Koala Hospital, in New South Wales, Australia. 
Congratulations to all the winners, and a big thank you to all who have supported this contest and fundraiser by way of tanka and donations.
The winners of this contest went above and beyond in terms of quality, extending the metaphor and the inferred emotion. Click the link to find the results.
