Description
Beauty in Destruction Series by Lexa Harpell.
Thick ash carpets the ground, a few remaining charred orange leaves remain on the trees. Australian trees are hardy and resilient, in no time this tree will be flourishing in its greenery.
Bush fires are a natural occurrence in Australia. Each summer, Mother Nature 'picks' a state to show 'who is in charge' of this land.
Many of our trees and plants have hardened to this event, some actually 'need' extreme heat to burst their seed pods into the ground.
