Elemental Alignment

It's the essence of what we're made of. It's right beneath us as we walk. It's what the Creator used from up above--- to make "the walking colours that talk". The essence of movement that kisses your face. It can push the sea and move the trees. Sweat on a hot day can be erased. Breeze that's felt with grace and ease. The burning flames put out heat. The colours are brilliant and bright. It's used outside when you need something to eat. It also brings dark things to light. It's the only thing that can quench your thirst. It's the one thing that connects all life. If you don't receive this you might just burst. A lack of this clear liquid can even create strife. We need all these elements to make the world go round. They are the essence of creation and what makes the world sound.
