Elements.

All four elements exist.
Day and night; all day err day.

Element one; the air.
Swiftly winging through each piece of grass,
Each flower petal on the tree,
Each leaf sprouting from every bud.
The wind moving through our hair, our fingers, our toes,
His toes, her toes, its toes.

Element two: The water.
Moving in and out of pores in the wet mud.
Forming puddles that we are oh-so deathly afraid to step in.
And if we do,
The water climbs upon our feet to take a nap.

Element three: the ground.
The earth.
Which we step on from day to day without a care
Of what we are doing.
Do we inflict pain on this gorgeous mother of ours?

Element four: The fire.
The sun,
It’s what started it all.
