Notes About The Poem

The Resurgence of the Phoenix

Written: June 21, 2023 ______________________________________________________________ The days of greatness, sun, and red rays At one time, I held you dear in the idyllic blaze. Across the skies, these colors used to be mine. From dusk to dawn, nature puts on a vivid shine. Under the blue, above the emerald green, I danced and twirled in a world unseen. My wings were dotted with chains of dawn dew. A solstice haze, a shimmering debut When I was young, I sowed my roots in stone. A silent strength, a presence all my own, I flourished and grew, reaching for the skies. Unyielding and fierce, with fire in my eyes. But alas, the cruel hands of time took hold. And my vibrant spirit began to unfold. I withered and faded; my flames grew dim. The Phoenix within me succumbed to the whim. I died, but not in vain, for deep within, A spark remained, waiting to spin. A rebirth, a resurgence, a chance to rise once more, In Spring embrace, on wings of fire, I'll soar. From ashes, I will emerge, renewed and strong. A symbol of resilience, a triumphant song, The Phoenix inside wakes up with a mighty roar. Igniting the skies with its radiant glow With each beat of its wings, the world is reborn. The days of glory once again adorn Sun and ruby rays adorn the heavens above. A testament to the power of love. The Phoenix rebirth is breathtaking. A story of reconciliation that kept shaking. Even in darkness, there's always a spark. A flicker of hope that ignites the dark So let the days of greatness, sun, and red rays. Illuminate our paths in a vibrant display, For beneath the blue, above the green, The Phoenix rises, a majestic scene.
