A Phoenix Rising
Spirit is what we cry for
the rebirth of a nation.
Courage to believe
in something bigger
than ourselves.
A vision of tomorrow
where the sun doesn’t burn
and the rain water is pure.
A small, red bite
of gumption
to choose to listen
to that tiny voice
inside our heart.
Where a fall doesn’t
lead to the end,
but transforms into
a phoenix rising. . .
