Elements by Emily H



Your spirit is
calling. Your wind is
blowing softly on
faces, the fire is
flowing, the earth is
spinning and the colors
are blowing, the moon
is sleeping, the sun
is hot on the faces
of thousands of
millions of people
and I am watching
it, all at once.



Earth   by Ian A

And the spirits of earth
said, We come out of the trees
that give you shelter and fruit
We are full of the life that
we give you to have Life, Joy and
sorrow - we bring you food that
you eat, the water that you drink
and the Animals you love.
We give you shelter that you live in,
rivers you drink from and animals
you eat.
