Phoenix

I am not sure what came first
The chicken or the egg
But I do know the first chicken’s name
It was Phoenix
She was always special
Always destined for greatness
Please don’t mistake this
Although there were chickens in the world
And they laid eggs
They were all the same
They all fit in pegs
There was no peg for Phoenix
She was confused at first
Thought it could be a curse
Why was there no place for her?
She was very bright
Seemed to be made of light
Perhaps that is why the other chickens didn’t see
She was out of their sight
All they saw was a flame
They cannot be blamed
We all do the same
Make pegs for us
Assume that is our place
Boxed in all around
Only place to look
the ground
Can hardly hear a sound
Can’t hear Phoenix
Calling us to dance
Now’s our chance
I hear the call
Began last fall
Heard the bells
Heard the strings
Heard the choir
Saw the colors
Felt the energy
Knew there was plenty
Good morning Phoenix
Now what’s next?
Time for a new step
More dance moves
All moves we choose
All of us king
That is what I hear Phoenix sing
Good morning beloved
Today is blessed
There is no test
No need to second guess
Welcome to a new world
Where dreams are true
Where love is not just for me and you
Divine love
love that is true
Good morning
God bless you
