The brazen sun beat down in waves,
Slow and deep and heavy
The weight of sunlight pressed.
The graceful trees uplifted branches,
Lithe and high and light
The kiss of shadows whispered.
The sparkling ocean danced,
Quick and bright and cool
The pull of water renewed.
The enigmatic earth supported,
Strong and deep and calm
The energy of earth restored
Fire, air, water earth
Within and without
We are the circle of elements
