From ashes a Phoenix will

From ashes a Phoenix will

A Poem by San Herman Lopez a.k.a. Sanzei
"

I'm trying new things, work in progress...

"

 

I was here in the dawn, and my spirit will burn till the end.

  From flames I spawn, for from my ashes I transcend…

 

 

 

I was by the garden when Adam was banished, that is when the burn came from within.

  My thoughts were anguished with his thoughts of sin…

 

 

 

I rise from the flames of those before me to one day be the ashes for those who follow.

  From high above I will always see, and trails of knowledge I leave for tomorrow…

 

 

 

I regenerate from all the pains of life and move forward to become complete in flight.

  My will continues in thee afterlife… For I am the fire of the sun and the light...

 

 

 

I resurrect with the glory of light to guide my path.

  From the skies I interject folklore, sparking life once again from thee aftermath...

 

 

 

I become a symbol of inspiration to all that could see the trails of knowledge I leave.

 My myth becomes my classification. So free I will be, until my flames unweave.

 

 

 

I am born to lead without a choice, for I am one with he…

  From ashes I again raise my voice, as I am reborn within history.

 

 

 

I

 M...

 

 

(too)

 

Rise…

San, you did realize that you had IF I'M (to) RISE? How cool is that? Good work, really great pattern......love the phoenix rising from the ashes allegory.....really fits where you are right now, rebuilding your life, creating new pieces, exploring new horizons! keep up the good work-some great lines in there,one example---I rise from the flames of those before me to one day become the ashes for those who follow.......great rendition of the cycle of life!

I really like the references to history and the idea of being reborn to inspire others. I especialy like the last two lines, and the acceptance of being "born to lead without choice". Thrilling images and analogies. Good job!
