"The Elements"
Water, earth, fire, and air,
The four elements of our world,
Without them, we could not bear,
Because they all make one big Earth.
Water is large and flowing,
It spreads its life across the land,
And keeps all creatures growing,
Yet we pollute and do not care.
Earth is strength and solid ground,
It holds you up when you may fall,
And lifts everyone around,
Yet we destroy it for ourselves.
Fire– wild and dangerous,
It can’t be quenched once it’s started,
And it’s still quite strange to us,
Yet we use it to burn things up.
Air is light and very free,
It makes weather and our own breath,
In the lungs of you and me,
Yet we fill it with harmful filth.
Do not wait and always sit,
Earth is dying because of us!
Clean it for your benefit,
And the elements will be one.
