Die to old ways
Sacrifice
What was once life
Smolders to nothingness
Even in ash
A flash of vibrance
Signals the inevitable
New growth
The design of Life
Flame and wings, one.
“The secret of change is to focus all of your energy, not on fighting the old but on building the new.” -Socrates
The fire under the ash,
blanketed, like white snow,
covering dark remnants of expectations
energy spent…
In that bed of ash, tucked in,
Small seed spark rests,
dormant, dreaming new life.
