Strength, Resolve


Poem Artwork

Tried to make her stumble

Tried to make her crumble

Tried so hard to break her

And see her humbled

 

This time your luck has run out

She’s ready to rumble

And make you take

A tumble

 

Tried so hard to play your tricks

Such a pity you didn’t know

Much about the Phoenix

And how much she is able to fix

No matter how hard you tried

To destroy her again & again

She rose.

 

A rare bird indeed

So unique, a miracle in fact

She managed to escape from your trap

Rising slowly from the ashes

Spreading her wings

A glorious sight

To behold

 

Thought she would forever be at your mercy 

Eventually; she is set free, soaring

Way up high, headed for the

Freedom of the sky

snuffed out my little flame
But then I re-emerged
from my coccoon

This book represents a thirty-day period of my poetry journal. Each poem addresses the dominant thoughts occupying my mind during the early morning hours of a given day.
