Elemental Feelings

Looking into the rain, feeling it on my face. Dancing in the sun, the warmth on my back. Running into the wind, it takes away my breath. Laughing in the snow, feeling the cold down to my toes. Falling into the leaves, hearing them crunch in my ear. Smiling at the flowers, feeling their soft petals on my fingertips. Winking at the moon, tasting the glow on my tongue. Watching the clouds, lying on my back. Counting the stars, and having to restart every time. Climbing the trees, feeling the rough bark on my hands. Relaxing on the grass, the green blades ticking my skin. Catching the bugs, Feeling the slimy worms wiggle Swimming in the ponds, the fish nibbling on my toes. Loving this wonderful world I live in.

Super title! You sustain the '-ing' verbs beautifully. Again, a lot of thought went into this and it shows... Best wishes, Keith (PS welcome to the Soup!)
