Phoenix: A Creation Story

In fire the freshest blossoms are made
with vermillion and canary overlaid,
in coals the colour of death new life
is swiftly extinguished, burning bright;
but the dust to which we return
is the stuff of which we are forged anew -
like the stars, who as they (collapsing) burn
throw out the elements that make you.
