A Phoenix Tale

They saw her fall

Descending flame

One final cry

To seal her fate

She crashed to earth

Her heartbeat rampant

The flames climbed higher

Her spirit dampened

The enemy encircled

To fan the flames

Eyes dimming marveled

'Til only ash remained

Once silence settled

They laughed and jeered

Drinking in victory

'Til dawn appeared 

Then ash was stirred

In wispy glow

All eyes widened

As fear did grow

A figure rose

The ash reborn

Creature ablaze

Her spark reformed

New life ignited

Each enemy fled

Justice was served

When the last one fell dead
