Air, Fire, Water - Personification of the Elements Poetry Contest

Air whispered wish with its all might 
to rouse fire to groom so bright;
Fire has all the heat to give,
but, without air, fire can't live. 

The fuel comes like unfolded maze, 
like love comes from unforeseen place;
Heat, fuel, air make fire to glow 
to warm the hearts as cold as snow.  

With the spark of its sweet ember-
precious moments to remember,
the nights when lovers make their pray 
to love forever, come to stay. 

When heat of fire comes full rage, 
the water rips its thorny cage;
Fire kneels in full submission, 
water tames its wild volition.
