A Fire Fighter's Poem

There we were
At the fire station
The bells started ringing
To announce a fire formation
There the truck goes
Speeding down the street
Lights flashing, sirens waling
We were not in for a treat
We get to the house
I was amazed
I grab the hose
And start to fight the blaze
The fire’s put out
There was no more house
Nobody died
Not even a mouse
