I envy the Phoenix,
her ability to renew herself,
to wipe away the rust and the dust
of mankind's mistakes.

Phoenix! rise from the dust!

Hearts await a rebirthing!

Spread your wings of love,
renew our hopes
that the tree of Life
may spring forth
and re-seed
buds of Peace
to grow 'round
the world.

The title is simply fascinating just for openers... and it DID make me want to open it. It was your...

"buds of Peace
to grow 'round
the world."

that tied the ribbon on it. Splendid work  
Kacy.

Beautiful words, as usual

"Phoenix! rise from the dust!

Kacy?...
these lines, in particular, hold powerful
meaning for me... as I live in Phoenix, AZ...
and we are now on day 142 of no rain...

and I SO NEED my rain!... as it does,
indeed, bring with it a 'rebirthing'
of sorts for my heart and soul...

Thank you for posting this...

of power the world will know peace."
