Phoenix Rising

Title: Phoenix Rising

Beneath the scorching desert sun,
Where hope seeks solace and redemption,
A migrant center stands tall and strong,
With open arms, embracing the throng.

James O’Keefe seeks to fuel the flames,
Igniting shadows of fear and blame,
Twisting narratives, spreading lies,
But unity and compassion shall rise.

In this oasis of empathy and grace,
A sanctuary for all in this desolate space,
Here, where dreams are reborn anew,
We stand united, brave and true.

The whispers of love drown out the hate,
As empathy crumbles the walls of fate,
Bound by humanity’s shared endeavor,
We uplift each other, now and forever.

From tattered shoes to hearts worn bare,
We strive for justice, for all to share,
For the bond that ties us is stronger still,
No poison can break, no venom can kill.

Oh, Arizona, let your spirit soar high,
Defying darkness, reaching for the sky,
Together, we’ll write a different story,
Of compassion, hope, and endless glory.
