Earth Fire Water Air

A poem we wrote together .... Ruth Helen Nuala Brid Sheilagh...guided by Ruth

.Earth is
mother to me
rich brown fertile
feeds the masses
what keeps me grounded everyday
my home,my family,my blue green planet, my love.
my heart, my nourishing benefactor
my life.

Fire is
so, so dangerous. beware.
it will lick your face with flame
it will dance with you
overwhelming
a turf fire is beautiful in wintertime
enjoy the flame.


Water is
azure blue
kills my thirst
beautiful to bathe in,
I feel great
whenever it touches me,
cascading over my body..
it invigorates me!
water is life.

Air is
pure and life giving
we die when we stop breathing air,
but the air never dies cannot be confines,goes on,and on..
air is energy and refreshes us
air is libra balance
fairness scales,
air,essential to life
without it we die.
