Not sure about this spelling, might be intentional, but the actual word is "incendia." But I love "she is the death/before the new birth." To be slightly ridiculous, it reminds me of what I learned about redwood trees. The seeds will only open if the cones are burnt. Life can only come if other life is destroyed. Sad, but true. And the last two lines...epic. I have never seen this side of fire through your pen! I like it and applaud! Will you pray that this does not reach my life... it is already up in flames! Burn with the light of passion I have seen you creed lay bare in this the truth of life and love is shown by the one who knows them in himself This is passionate and a bit frightening, like Fire itself. The lines "She is the death before new birth" have so much impact and make me think of the phoenix being consumed by fire and then rising reborn out of the ashes. I also just love the line "Cradle of the Sun". You have written a completely wonderful poem. Thank you. |
