'Beauty From Ashes' Poem by Linda Winchell

'Beauty From Ashes'

Rating: 4.7


Out comes the beauty from ashes burn
God takes His hands and forms a new.
So that God's lessons might be learned
And bring about, a newer you.

Like the forest after, a raging fire storm
all of its trees and brushes, burnt to the ground.
Bringing forth from ashes, God gives new life
from burnt embers, He will form.

Popping up from the soot
springs a flower nurished from this soil.
It needed the food of old pines sacrificed
so it should not have, new of life in toil.

Then there, in the corner of your eye
is seen a patch, of brightest green.
Where at one time there was nothing, but dried needles
of an old pine floor, one had seen.

There comes, 'Beauty From Ashes'
from lifes sins burn, ones life may bring you.
But through God's Love of forgiving Grace
we can all, be made and born anew.
