Debjani Mitra Poet Personification

Phoenix

Hovering my sun scorched wings, I soar high
traversing thousands of mountain realms
In my own golden cage , an inferno blazing
my soul sizzles in orange-red yellow flames.
Flying in exalted passion, a trajectory of hope
yet when the night sky darkens, in tearful eyes
I am reduced to a smoldering pile of ashes.
A sleeping beauty in her  stillness  of Death
black abyss beyond sunset, a spark rekindles
O Sun, with you , I will awake tomorrow again.
