The Phoenix is landing

The Phoenix is landing

A firebird believed to have nestled from a volcano

to fly with its golden plumage for a thousand years.

The golden drip of its quill a testimony of its flight

and a reflection of life,

and burn in sweet cinnamon twigs.

It is hello and goodbye,

The Phoenix is landing…

Till the next Phoenix and its new flight.
