The coolness of water
Flowing through my fingers
The gurgling of a brook
With its healing touch
The serene peace
That a lake brings
Is part of me

The strength of the earth
Protecting all life
The sturdiness of a mountain
Standing tall and proud
The solid, unmovable feel
Beneath my feet
Is part of me

The heat of a blazing fire
Lighting up the night
The tin heartbeat
Of a candle flame
The sizzling pride
Of a bright orange bonfire
Is part of me

The freedom of the open air
Breezing through the sky
The wild west wind
That bends trees to the ground
The detachment from the world
When soaring through the sky
Is part of me.

The four elements-
So different,
Yet all the same
They connect us
I connect them
And they are a part of me.
