Heart of the Matter

A Quadru-haiku Collection

By Laura Merchant RoodenburgPublished 3 years ago 1 min read
First round’s on me. ;)

EARTH

It's small, after all

Inhabitable, for now

While rocks spin, hope floats

WATER

A body of you

It will never be enough

Foreseeable thirsts

FIRE

From scorched, lifeless ground

Sparks fly to light a new path

Through sparkling ashes

AIR

Sharp winds instigate

An epic oak tree battle

Solidarity
