Into Flames and Ash
Regina Puckett
A kind heart filled with words painted them onto a page
Turning each one into an artwork free from hate and rage
Each one of his words was created out of love, hope, joy and trust
A stunning masterpiece that remained long after the author’s dust to dust
But someone read the poet’s words and despised his wonderful creation
Not understanding that their meaning could connect our divided civilization
So the beautiful pages of rhyme were tossed away like useless trash
A moment of outrage turning a heart full of inspiration into flames and ash
