Earth

Are you made of dirt?

Yes, carbon and other dusts!

You’re earth but not filth

Water

Are you water too?

Sixty percent, you are a

Lake who wanders free

Air

And are you the wind?

Oxygen in your blood proves

You’re a living breeze

Fire

But— are you a flame?

Yes, when you allow yourself

To fire up your dreams
