To California

Warm summer air
Smells of the ocean
Blowing with the wind
Sand, tan and littered
Broken glass
Shattered lives

Tall redwood trees
Towering over homes
Harmonious surroundings
Red flames lick rotting branches
Heavy smoke blackens the sky
Happy wooden homes
With people trapped inside

White letters in the hillside
Spells HOLLYWOOD
Famous celebrities
Living out life dreams
Accidental overdoses
So much suicidal hate
Bad publicity
Splashed on People magazine
My California,
With it’s ups and downs
Good and bad qualities
For my California
