The 4 Forces

Water The dark wind pounds against the ground The clouds taken over by the sky Rain, a destroying force Ready for destruction, ready to overflow Rain, a powerful and friendly force Ready to nurse, ready to grow. Fire A protector. A kind, gentle force. Without consideration, without doubt Clearing down growth, satisfying our stomach Unpredictable, uncontrollable Useless to those who use them unwisely Helpful for those who use them wisely A killer. A fiery of destruction, a unstoppable force Earth The place for us to stand, for us to walk, for us to farm How to describe it, how to view it A force of nature hard to forget What would be without it Without the Earth, the place to live Or the earth we farm and walk on To hell we go without or with the Earth. Air The thing we breath, the calm, flowing Air. Born to give life. The one that is always with us In our first and final breath A force to be reckoned with Blowing, blowing wind Alas, it is and will be with me now, and forevermore!
