“HA!” Air! “Breath of life!”

Oxygen for life required

Water sustains life

Mankind warmed by fire

Fire cooks their fresh gathered foods

Sustenance for life

Gut microbiome

Just like our earth’s healthy soil

For food, man must toil

At life’s final end

All humans return to dust

Earth holds their ashes
