" Earth " , we implore you to nourish this seed .
Grant it a path that one might follow true ,
held in your power o'er all of our creed ,
sustainer of life , pray guard this one too .

Your names are many , invisible one ,
from faint-ness of zephyrs hurricanes rage .
Let your swift currents be never undone ,
" Air " grant safe passage , strengthened in age .

Giver of warmth , in your radiant glow
our passion for life , a spark to your hue .
" Fire " light your way , reflect kindly to show
this seeker what lay out-spread before you .

" Water " your depths hold the secret to life .
Impart what is needed , returned anew .
Salt tears in homage as death weilds his knife ,
shed in your honor when living is through .

May these " Four " protect you all of your days
that once again we shall meet down the ways

DrMoose~
Oh ... now you just had to KNOW I'd enjoy this~
May the spirits/elements work in unison to teach us to cherish and maintain all~

Impart what is needed, returned anew.
Salt tears in homage as death weilds his knife,
shed in your honor when living is through.

I so enjoyed this verse~
*Hugs*
