The volcano at La Palma is erupting

The destructio­n it is causing is all-consuming

Nature’s fireworks are creating a dazzling display Thousands of residents have had to flee their homes and run away

The lava spurting out is so very destructiv­e

The people who have fled are escaping with their lives

This is a really big issue for La Palma in the Canaries

The lava is flowing near the sea as it continues its merciless journey

El Pasa was evacuated after lava spewed from a new crack in the Cumbre Vieja volcano

So much damage has already been done; when this eruption will stop, no one knows

The lava has already buried many hundreds of homes

Now it is gushing along forcefully as to the sea it roams

This force of nature has caused a huge amount of damage

Lava has spurted out everywhere. It truly is so savage

The inhabitant­s have fled their homes, they are so afraid and do not know where to go

What will happen to them now their homes have gone? These poor people are in limbo and simply do not know

When the lava enters the sea it could spread poisonous gas This could be deadly for sea creatures, as among them it could pass

La Palma will be like a ghost town The people have had to escape from their homes

All that can be seen is red-hot lava soaring into the sky as this deadly force of nature from Earth’s centre comes
