Jose Radin Llorca Garduque Poet Rhyme

35 I'm a Phoenix

35.

I'm a Phoenix



I'm a Phoenix who melts in demise

From the ashes of my past I shall arise



I shall witness happily

The morning sun's new glory



I shall rise up from my feet

With a courageous heartbeat



I shall spread out my wings wide

And set all hindrances aside



And I shall make them see

That there's a radiant hope in me.



I'm a Phoenix, I'm a Phoenix

You shall see!



-sometime in 12/2009 – 1/2010

(Dumarao & Roxas City)

*a song to inspire self

Ghairo Daniels January 6, 2026 at 4:33 PM ThkU for reposting this poem, Jose. I enjoyed it & the images of re-emerging. Phoenixes are always relevant as death & rebirth is always relevant. Blessings to you & the Philippines for a blessed 2026., Ghairo
