BE THE AIR


that fills all lungs with song
air that adds joy and breath and oxygen
air that fills sails,balloons and kites
air that sustains us all our lives

be the water that we are all made of
the elemental womb we came out of
the waters that we drink,and share,and add love to
make water free and clear and fresh and new

be the earth we will all rest within
that patient earth that waits our planting
earth before and after us
earth as solid as your love

be the fire that animates
that changes life to art and warms our nights
that passion inciting changes towards betterment
sometimes fire burns,so new growth becomes evident

be that elemental strength that continues on-
that fills all spirit with art,poem,music,love and song!
