Rebirth
A Crown Cinquain
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

My New Book is Finally Here
My poetry collection Beautiful and Brutal Things is done. It's actually done and finally published over 270 pages. Over a year of my life went into this book. More than a year, really. Long days at my computer, sometimes seven days a week because I couldn't stop even when I probably should have. Then two months of editing that felt harder than the writing itself. But it's finished, and I'm still standing, and the book is real.

Oh my, you executed this so beautifully! It was soooo powerful! So well done!
Lovely work. And “bridges form” - I like that idea a lot! 😊
Stunning & brimming with Hope! 💖
Ah, rebirth - yet many times it isn’t possible or it happens only to fall due to the original selfish person reverting to their normal behavior😢. Your poem is beautiful!
Amazing poem!
Stunningly inspirational. Love it
Very deep
This is stunning! It’s like watching two souls find their way back to each other—strengthened, healed, and whole. Truly a beautiful journey in words!
