By Melina S. Farahmand. Poem from the book When the Stars Collide
Like a Phoenix, continue to
rise from beneath the ashes,
with the magic that lies within
and take that power to shatter
every glass ceiling and create healing
Within a nation that is too busy
grieving instead of dreaming,
we are pleading with you
To rise into the fire-filled sky
with your wings created by kings—
Rise like the Phoenix, trailblazer.
