• Elemental Sorrow

    All for elements; maidens fair
    Water, fire, earth and air
    Nurturing all living things
    Love and life: from them; they spring

    Earth, of where the animals nest
    And all of which she kissed and blessed
    But impurities destroyed her skin
    And drained her life; outside and in

    Water; she cares for all sea creatures
    Showing off her elegant features
    But toxins poisoned her inside
    And that is how she really died

    Air: the breath of life, a pleasant breeze
    A playful nymph among the trees
    Was bought on down by heavy fog
    And choked to death by filthy smog

    Fire; a ditzy, fiery, "wild child" spirit
    Chuckles and giggles (if you can hear it)
    Abused by man to do unright
    Instead of being soul and light
