My Little Ditty

Dear Reader,


I wrote this little ditty for a friend who is going through a rough time. May she and you get the strength and support that you need from this piece and those in your circle of support.

FLIGHT OF CHANGE

Out of the dark horizon and large fireball arose. This was like no other and it was brighter then the sun could ever be. A figure of a majestic bird appeared in the flames. The phoenix was a sign of change. Out of the dark the phoenix flew and created light for the daytime, the sun was ashamed of the petty life it had lived. The Phoenix soared through the air with out any trouble. A strong wind beneath its large and bountiful wings. Many a person stared at the sky looking at what provided the new light for the day. Standing in awe and woman troubled by the harsh tendencies of life gazed at the beautiful Phoenix. In those captivating moments the phoenix was in view this woman made a decision to changing everything in her life. She had carved the word FAIL into her left shoulder but no more was she going to be a failure. In everyone's eyes she was anything but. Nothing can change what your mind will constantly tell you and fixate you into believing. From that day on the woman made a promise to herself to change. For the life of her son, dog and husband she made the best change ever. She addressed and worked on her mental health issues, which is like an internal war. A triumphant warrior this woman became. Medals of honour only noticeable to those who were close. She was special before but after witnessing such a sight nothing was ever the same, which was the best part of it all.
