The Phoenix


Photo Credit: Google images

A Bird

An image so clear
Emerging from the ashes
With wings wide apart

Extending its reach
Smoothness over the divide
Reaching out to watch

Fully satisfied
Extending its commitment
Over the masses

    Always liked Phoenix lore, nicely done with your tour. Unless its dark Phoenix taking over Jean Grey, that just doesn't make my day..haha
