Water, Air, Sky, Fire, Earth
Wish we were like Water
That blends in
That replenishes and rejuvenates
That shapes itself to whatever the need be
Wish we were like Air
That goes with the flow
That finds a way in and a way out
That fills the void everywhere yet unnoticed
Wish we were like Fire
That is so radiant
That gives warmth to healthy and frail
That accompanies us even in the darkest caves
Wish we were like Sky
That is limitless
That welcomes us with open arms
That lets us dream and gaze far-away stars
Wish we were like Earth
That nurtures us
That helps us sleep and takes us within
That lets us run and bears every footprint
Oh natural elements, wish we were like you…
You treat us all, equal, after all
Man, women all the same
Rich, poor all the same
Powerful, weak all the same
Young, old all the same
In your eyes, we are all the same
Water, Air, Fire, Sky and Earth
We humans understand your worth
Never old, never new
Wish we were like you!
