Rise

By DuchessofDoom

I want to cradle the world in the palm of my hand
Shrink all the people down to grass blades
And their souls to shining dewdrops
Burn their bodies to ash in the sun
Let their souls sparkle and rise with the heat

    Welcome back. It seems your transpiration cycle is complete. I am assuming you have been the dew drop before... Good write.

    Thank you! It's amazing how long I went without writing anything, and then the urge to spill everything manifested itself, so here I am. I hope this is the beginning of an inspirational year.
