From ashes, reborn,

Through pyre’s flame,

The Phoenix rises,

To victorious acclaim!

Sparks trickle down,

Like sands of time,

A fiery soul, to the skies,

He shall climb;

Until once again,

His nest, he does ready,

Though not yet ignited,

His task remains steady.

To return to his ashes,

Then restart again, new;

Find another reason,

Another land to pursue.

As wings clap together,

He creates his own fire;

The power of the Phoenix,

Soaring higher, and higher.

Ashes Breathe the Fire of Life
Rising from Smoldering Flames
Frenzied and Fevered
She Ignites a Spark
Captivating her Claim

Unearthly Desires Swirl from within
Kindling a Blaze, Incandescent
Charred and Blackened
She Leaves a Mark
Her Fiery Heart, Incessant

A Pile of Ashes ~ #poetry #freeverse

Thoughts..because of the terrorism attacks taking place around the world…Be safe.


The warmth was no more

Much like the black char of

An empty fireplace, barren

Of fire, a flame diminished

The heat, no longer, a spark

Doused by many, rekindled

By none, who knew not why

Nor how, to stoke the flames

Repair the resilience, before

Humanity, is but a pile of ashes
