Memories Came Rushing Back (Poem)

Today

I saw a car on fire

As I exited the grocery store.

A power pole was snapped in half

With flames, like a vision of hell,

Soaring above the doomed vehicle -

Thick, black choking smoke

Poured towards the blue sky.

Then I heard the sirens

And the Brothers appeared

 Scurrying to put out the fire.

For few moments I was a young fireman again

As the memories came rushing back.

Then I got into the car and left.
