We Were Born of Fire and Ash

Free-Verse Poetry

We were born of fire and ash
Rising from the dust of a former fate
To take once more
To the skies of life, material
Lifted on the eternal currents
Of time and space
Drifting
As it were
In the distance between
Moments far removed
Searching for
Now
In the ambiguous flow
Of then and thereafter
Until the breeze has calmed
And we settle once more

    1. Wow, thank you so much for that compliment. I am quite flattered. I love this community, and all of the very talented people who continue to contribute their words and ideas here, in all forms. The bonds we share and the memories are perhaps the most valuable things I have ever collected in my time here.
