Fire on Bay

Fire on bay
on a 4th of September day
2001 is the year
Onlookers are watching in despair

The wind blowing from east to west
Fire spreading without regret
Straw vendors are affected the most
the straw market is becoming a ghost

Sadness in the eyes of the affected
Hope of saving much is rejected
The straw market is now history
tomorrow remains still a mystery

Vendors are now without stalls
Concerns are on the minds of them all
The tourists' dollar will be missed
all because of an arsonist

The tragedy has united the nation
People coming together for re-creation
Bigger and better is the talk
the ghost of the market past has to walk!
