Fire, water, air and earth

sorenbarrett

The sun warms me

lighting the beauty all around

It’s golden glory

Paints flowers of every shade and hue

Seductive scents are launched by gentle breezes

And the brook’s dancing waters

Whisper to me

As it passes through emerald green meadows

Lazy lace clouds silently spread,

ever changing patterns of shadows

Over hypnotic waves of rippling grass

Birds serenade, accompanied by

Cicadas, and rustling leaves

Trees sway, and butterflies lift and fall

As shadows lengthen, night draws on

Imitating the golden orb

Fireflies of green and yellow pulse and fade

drifting through the darkness of space.

Its lunar sister reflects

A soft silvery glow

A distant symphony of frogs and crickets

Play in concert under a shower of stars

Distant thunder rolls, lightning flashes

Drops patter on the clay tile roof

The smell of fresh rain on dry ground

Fire, water, air and earth

All that was, is or ever will be
