Phoenix

From the heat

Of hells darkness

Wrought by the hand of man

comes the strength 

to conceive the crucible 

As The phoenix burns 

for resurrection 

To the glory

of dead men’s

insurrections

Desmond I think in all fairness to you that if the word I have suggested is acceptable to you then perhaps you should dive into your thesaurus
and find a word with the same meaning and is of your choosing

that way the poem remains owned by you and not partly by me despite how small my inclusion would be if you get my drift?

Hi Rose, thank you for your comment. I don’t think you’ve got my intentions wrong, just a slightly different angle. On reading the poem again I can see your view and think the word rebuild would go well, as I value your input
What do you think ?

really like this poem Desmond. May I ask if adding the word -repair-would help? as in

'To (repair) the glory
of dead men's insurrections'

or have I got your intention wrong?
