the bird did sing
while taking off
with fiery wings
Praising the sun
the bird did glow
Asking to be strong and young
and from the ash
the bird rose
Now young and free
risen from ash and stone
The bird sings to the sun alone
Taking off with powerful
wings
Rising into the new morning sky
without end
The Phoenix died and was born

The Rising

A peaceful song

Praising the sun
the bird did glow
Asking to be strong and young
and from the ash
the bird rose
Now young and free
risen from ash and stone
The bird sings to the sun alone
Taking off with powerful
wings
Rising into the new morning sky
without end
The Phoenix died and was born
again.

Thing, bird, rising, flying high, as into hot sun. Sun shedding it's skin upon moon, grows quiet, sleeps. Burnt/ wonderful tragedy to think of, hot, very hot/ such/ light --- thinking about thing, bug zapper, being flying insect that was born on land or near land in swamp/ somehow surviving cold winter nights/ and angry birds in springtime, summer or fall/ as well as poems and music/and oh yes, magic dancing.
Thank you! Dust also rises. It builds up. Then it shakes loose.
Peace!

Very serene!

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
