Poetry: Evidence of Life | World Poetry Day 2025 ©Dawn Minott

On March 21, 2025June 10, 2025 By Dawn MinottIn Poetry

Flames rise
Words ignite
Smoke unwinds
Carrying dreams

Flicker, soft, yet bold
Stories etched
Life burns bright
Traces linger

Ashes whisper
From fire’s end
Poetry—
Proof remaining in its wake

Afterword: This poem was inspired by this quote from Leonard Cohen:

Poetry is just the evidence of life. If your life is burning well, poetry is just the ash.
Leonard Cohen
