Pretty nice. The chorus has a calm rhythm to it that I can hear as a song. In other parts the rhythm jolts a little, but only in a few. "so we wouldn't have to" I think could be replaced with something more fitting and less vague or cliché. Throughout the poem the physical descriptions are good; I get the overarching picture of the optimistic phoenix very clearly. Tis a nice celebration peace for Eastertime.

I tend to think that the phoenix from the ashes metaphor is overused, but it worked well for this piece. I love the parallels you draw and how you compare both Christ and Christians to the phoenix. "We will shake off the ashes / Of our previous life" expecially caught my attention. Very nice work. I enjoyed this piece.
