from the ashes, inspiration

Powerful flame with

     Purpose 

          ignited 

Drawing all the 

    Light-beings

           around her.

Resigned from all shame

or regret

She is 

      sighted 

on mountaintops 

and in mystic caves.

She steps into battle

when called

      she

       is

      ready

to meet Fear

with fierce Love 

as her shield.

Set aflame 

       down to ash

and arising again,

She is myth come 

         alive with her dragon-blood heart

making art, a new story, 

this brave arch,

deep inner-knowing

that this cold heat only heals.

Oh this fire-storm fight has

revealed once more

   a warrior,

       a healer,

         a Phoenix!
