The Phoenix

(Dedication: For Courtney Vinch, Keep faith in yourself.) -------------------------------------- Come find your true place as love seeks you too; Open mind and heart to know that time heals; Urge your radiant face to fond cheer that coos; Rise as feelings start to attract goodwill. Now feel what you feel in mindset you own; Etch a new story that helps you be free; Your know love can heal if your heart is known; Verse scripts you can see allows joy to be. Inch steady slow steps and create your map; Niche your soul treasure in what your heart knows; Cheer is your own flap to cast your kind trap; Here you can measure what your desires show. Believe in your fate that love now reveals; End of pain relates your life trend you fill. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Learn to be cheery despite the harsh pains; Open your heart more to simple pleasures; Vouch for less moody the sordid refrains; Embrace your sweet core with childlike treasures. Wish upon a star to be your delight; Ignite your feelings with sun burst splendour; Love catapults far in inspired clear sight; Life is yet willing to grant you grandeur. Do what feels just right, embrace help that comes; Empty the old gall and start new right here; Sweet days follow nights to balance old sums; Indulge and install your grand tale of cheer. Go on and grab joy with grand thoughts lovely; Now let your dreams toy with faith that's lively. Leon Enriquez 26 Apr 2014 Singapore (Note: This poem is an Acrostic Sonnet.)
