Element of Earth For Mankind

Mankind is enabled for his very existence
An impossibility if not aided by the element of earth
Solid ground on which to construct a shelter and call home
Fertile soil in which to grow food to all of us a serve
The element of earth does not work alone
Complimented with fire, air and water balance each element
Mankind is provided tools from the earth to survive
Results favor mankind if he chooses not to be negligent
Without this gift from the element earth
Man would surely struggle to survive
Appreciate these tools that this earth provides
For without them we may not be alive
