The Rising
March 5, 2013
A peaceful song
the bird did sing
while taking off
with fiery wings.
Praising the sun
the bird did glow
Asking to be strong and young
and from the ash
the bird rose.
Now young and free
risen from ash and stone
The bird sings to the sun alone.
Taking off with powerful
wings
Rising into the new morning sky
without end
The Phoenix died and was born
again.
