Question: Does the Phoenix rise from the ashes only in mythology!?
I Rise
In midst of darkness
there was unseen light
eyes no longer blind
hands no longer tied
bowed head now lifted
unfettered from shackles
I rise
I rise, damn it
not with whimper but roar
shoulders once slumped
now broadly thrust back
proudly carrying hope
on one and determination
on the other
I rise
I rise, damn it
a choice I've made
this pen
my declaration to you
it's true from the ashes
the Phoenix did rise
his flight I'll make mine!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Such determination, and meaning, to back it up!.!.!.all poetically enhanced by the 'Phoenix'!
Yes, there's a Phoenix in all of us!.!.!.for some, the Phoenix never resurrects, for others, they fly anew each day, with words to match!!!Www@QuestionHome@Com
It rises from it's own ashes only in mythology if your poem is a myth!. And since it is definitely a good here and now tangible poem, it is surely no myth, so yes, the bird known as ma has risen from it's ashes to take her place with the poets of Mars, who are also not mythical!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
Only in mythology -I surely think not!.
Thanks for this inspiring poem!. Not only can the Phoenix continue to rise from the ashes to this day, but the Dragon can take flight as well!.
This touched me on a personal level, ma -and I appreciate it!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Phoenix Lander is on Mars even as we speak!. The New Martians own him in poetry!. No whimpers here, only songs of triumph over disaster!. Dondi will set it to music and we will soon be singing it!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
