The Elements of Life

Fire, water, earth and air
The four elements that shape our world
They have their own powers and traits
They can create or destroy, heal or harm
They can work together or against each other
They can be our friends or foes

Some people fear them as foes
They see them as threats to their lives and their air
They try to control them or avoid them altogether
They do not appreciate their beauty or their role in the world
They do not understand their balance or their charm
They only focus on their dangers and their traits

Some people love them for their traits
They see them as allies and not as foes
They respect their strength and their charm
They breathe in their essence and their air
They marvel at their diversity and their wonders in the world
They try to learn from them and live with them together

Some people are like them together
They share some of their qualities and traits
They belong to one of them or to a mix of them in the world
They can be friendly or hostile, like friends or foes
They can be calm or restless, like stillness or air
They can be warm or cold, like fire or charm
