Phoenix

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.
