The Phoenix Rescue Squad

Raise your head and open up your eyes
The air is filled with phoenix surprise
Their wings ablaze with glories delight
The sky turns golden, a wondrous sight
Spiraling upward they soon fill the sky
So many of them dancing there on high
This is the Phoenix Rescue Squad’s work
They come to hearts aid where fears lurk

The squadron leader orders landing drill
And hearts that witness it feel the thrill
Phalanxes gracefully descend in ranks
And weary sad hearts lift giving thanks
The sight of their wings glowing power
Raises spirits, in loves hope they shower
The Phoenix Rescue Squad brings light
They come to hearts clouded by night

The fire of renewal beats back the pain
And the phoenix fire dries up the rain
With the air on fire they enlighten you
Giving back hope, pulling you through
Returning your eyes to truths clear sight
Giving you wings to join in their flight
The Phoenix Rescue Squad land's here
They come to hearts that live with fear

Marsha



Take back the hope you gave,- I claim
Only a memory of the same

Wow, this is excellent! What a creative use of symbolism for warding off fear and darkness, a devout light of flame. Yes, may love and light overcome all! Thank you for sharing, my friend!

May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton

Kathleen love, come fly with us love, there's a space right between Paula and I. And our wings will help you untill you get used to the feeling of flight. (And if you are really good Paula and Kethry do some truly wonderful aerial acrobatics that are spectacular.
Take care love

Kethry love, thank you sweetie, and none of those tricky back flips you've been doing, you know I can't keep up with you. And I always want to be in the first rank with you super flyers.  
Take care love

Noah love, thank you, much appreciated of you. The Phoenix Rescue Squad is sort an unofficial group, but we aren't elitist I promise. We just happen to have the best flyers in the group  
Take care love

Kari love, why what have I done to make you proud love, it isn't as good as it could have been. But you see I'm trying really hard to pare it down. It's tighter yes but is it any good? Thank you Squadron Leader  
Take care love
                Majestic Marsha
                        
Paula love, we will love, but none of those loop the loops, I've just had so birthday cake and I swear, it's made me a little slower on the turns.
Take care love. You know I thank you don't you, good because I do.
