The phoenix

I saw a phoenix today, from the ashes it soared 

Through the sky in a blaze of yellow, red, gold 

It was a thing of such beauty of honour and grace 

It rose up with fire and headed for space 

 

For a second I saw it, then it was gone 

But the impact it left me will forever live on 

It was an omen you see, a blessing, a gift 

That nothing is over that life\'s not adrift 

 

Burst from the flames, renew who you are 

Learn from what happened, help heal the scars

A phoenix is beauty, strength and re birth 

Let that symbol now stand for all that your worth
