Paradise Parrot

The.
Blaze.
Awakens.
It mesmerises and captivates me, my effulgent, vibrant feathers floating away...
The scorching is here.
It.
Brings.
No.
Mercy.
As I watch, it engulfs the woodland,
I know this is the end of my journey.
I feel an elysian peace,
As cinder and smoke emits from me.
I suddenly see a luminescence, a light,
“Tread lightly, little fledgling,” the radiance whispers in my ear,
My devotion and passion rids me of my fear
I.
Have.
Hope. Here.
