We know the danger

When people ask why we stay

But this is our home.

Thank you for reading my Haiku. This is inspired by the tales of those that live on islands with active volcanoes. Hope you enjoyed.

    Well done! This is relatable for anyone living anywhere considered dangerous by others. Some things are worth the risk.
