Life's Basics
Four basic elements combine
In an association rare,
To insure that our lives survive.
One of the quartet, precious air.
Our bodies include an element,
Half our weight, up to three quarter.
We could only live for a few days
Without God's great gift of water.
He hung the sun up in the sky
When he made His great creation.
In revolution of one day,
Fire's shared with every nation.
Earth uses the four elements
To give birth to all of Nature.
So finely tuned how can Man doubt
There is a supreme Creator.
If one of the four were not to be
There could not be a you or me.
