My Ode to Four
The forest and mountains,
 I live for you.
 The grass, rocks, and trees:
 so old but so new.
 Material, strength,
 the direction North.
 A pentacle lies
 to come and bring forth.
 
 Oceans and rain,
 we cry for you now.
 Bringing life to this planet:
 your triangle down.
 Emotions and divination,
 you stand for my sign.
 Falling around me,
 your chalice divine.
 
 Burning volcanoes,
 fires of old.
 Creation and Destruction:
 the stories you hold.
 Love, sex, and anger.
 The south pyre burns.
 As I raise my wand to you,
 the Wheel of Fire turns.
 
 Eastern breezes
 fill both of our lungs.
 I light the incense
 and hear the song that he sung.
 Thoughts of and travel,
 I feel your soft touch.
 I draw with my athame,
 for breathing's your crutch.
