A Single Breath --- Freeverse

With each inhalation of breath I become one, one mind, one spirit, one body, and in one breath I feel the balance of the universe revealed inside me. I am in the air whispering through the trees bringing the beauty of creation closer I am the wind changing all living things in a single breath. I am the water quenching the thirst for life flowing rivers and raging seas I am a raindrop in a destructive tidal wave. I am the fire, burning inside the Earth's core the phoenix reborn in the flame I am the candle illuminating the sun's rays. And I am the Dragon giver of life, bringer of death you call for my return my child I never left you.
