Hope rises from ashes, and combats loss. - Michelle Liew

This poem complements Clandestine, a Crown Cinquain on loss written beautifully by Dharsheena.

*******************************************************

Ashes

Blown by the wind

Embers begin to light

From dust, something springs anew

Kindled

*******************************************************

Kindled

By loving hands

A soft voice stirs

A new soul, form true, is a balm

Healing

*******************************************************

Healing

Delicate steps

Each tread slowly soothes pain

And bridges form where walls were built

Mending

*******************************************************

Mending

Scars on hurt souls

They forge a bond anew

Through trust rebuilt, their strength combined

Stronger

*******************************************************

Stronger

Now than ever

Twin souls, rising from pain

Rise from the ashes, hands holding

Rebirth
