Ashes

Ashes to ashes
Dust to dust
Another day
Where I rust

Ashes to fire
Dust to wind
Another note
And next of kin

Ashes to dirt
Dust to sky
Wings out
Ready to fly

Ashes to lust
Dust to love
Yearn again
From above

I like how this poem started out a bit dreary and ended with hope. Life seems to be that way. We pick ourselves up and find hope to keep moving on. Thank you for sharing your writing.

I didn't see that at first. I think I like your perspective more than mine. Thank you.
