Fire of Phoenix

by xTheEcstasyOfSuicidex   Jan 30, 2007


Wings made of fire spread largely to answer gods in the sky,
Graceful answers shriek amongst forgotten places that defy,
A beauty so still - in years to come arises a new sun,
Admitting everything but defeat, by this light all will be done.
Admiration made a body of red, silk, silver, and gold,
Dazzling all with its incompetence of white and the bold,
Flying high in much answer to the melting sun's desire,
This Phoenix will live, dashing and calm, yet burning of fire.
Shrieking with a golden beak with much to say, yet not allowed,
Falling to the ground, with gracious deceit, all animals bowed,
To this animal of much power, of golden light and flame,
These angels of fire rule the Earth, yet their beauty can't be tamed.

    This is a short but great read. The only thing I dislike about it is the last two lines. They don't have a great flow like the rest of the poem. Good job though!
