Elegant Nature

*I was going to enter this into the Sea, Soil, Sky contest, but apparently I was too late :(

Oozing through the murky waters;
amongst the weeds floats the slimy eel.

Writhing slowly through the world beneath;
vital, spineless, the mighty earthworm.

Floating lazily at epic heights...
Sudden dive! Quick splash! Triumphant eagle.
