Earth

Earth,
A deep stillness pervades within your green self
Nourishment you provide in the form
Of plants, trees and a gentle steady hum
That calms one's inner chaos
A silent thrum of life beats in your depths
Of fertile soil, rocks, tree roots and deep layers underground
Magnitudes of peaceful bliss sing
A rhythm to the soul that yearns for such serenity
I stand on sacred ground
Seeking out the calm, tranquil strength
You give of freely
Strength inherent all 'round
Beauty I see, forevermore, I will be
At peace in your presence.

Air

Air,
Of wind and communicative thoughts
Breezes through a mind to refresh and enhance
Inner clarity of purpose and self
Dandelion wishes of sincerity
Explode into the air reminiscent
Of a butterfly kaleidoscope of color bursting
Scatters to the four winds
Grants one focus, a release
Prayers crafted of wind
Take flight on airy wings to the heavens
To become manifest

Air, of self-expression
Blows through the self
Desire to create
Present in the minds and hearts of artists and writers
Ideas born, works form
From your incorporeal self

In your domain of an azure sky,
Puffy wisps of clouds saunter by
With their intangible forms
Their essence is of you

Wind,
Of which a lavender fragrance blows,
To enthrall the senses
And takes one to a purple reservoir of sweet calm
Air of thought and space,
I dissolve to become formless, free like you.

Fire

Fire,
That burns angry, yet passionate
I look within your flames of fury,
Seeing many avenues of change
For you transform the weary
Into the mighty and strong
Gives one the courage and power to carry on
Bursting volcanic explosions
Wrath of Mother Nature?
Or a way of showing your superb brilliance
Fire flickers in the morning light,
In an orange-red sky of dawning hope
Rays shine into the dark corners of the world
Proclaiming an end to the dark of night
At least for a short while as the sun makes its presence known
A manifestation of you
Just like the burning flame inside which never dies
Life giving, warmth, heat and light
You encompass
In your molten depths of many forms
Your dazzling ways help to make our world
A brighter and more cheerful place
So live on and burn,
Live on and burn your symphony of fiery radiance
Illuminating..........
Life.

Water

Water,
That flows of blue drops cascading down
A waterfall.

Adaptability and malleability
Changes its shape in whatever houses it.

Oceans,
Blue-green seas of possibilities
Deep beneath frothing waves
And still surfaces.

Trickling along lazily downstream,
Sun sparkles off a shimmery blue surface
A river.

Wears away opposition
To make a pathway to its destination
Goes with the flow
Fast or slow
It flows through our veins and emotions,
Encompasses feeling, purifies and cleanses us.

Water essential,
The very elixir of life.
