Part I: Air
The element of intelligence
Thought and mental vigilance
The reasoned flow on an idea
Thick introspective silence
The methodology of genius
The communicative flow between us
The conversational evolution of an era
Cognitive comprehension a plus
The gentleness of a breeze
Of mental clarity with ease
Light and feathery above Terra
Flights of whims, a mental tease
As air gives us life in breath
The lack of it, stillness in death
Purified constantly by the flora
Gaea alive – breathing life’s wealth
The breath of our lives
The thoughts our minds drive
This Element of Air
This life drifting slowly by
Part II: Fire
The element of passion
Lust and fixation
The burning desire
And heated elation
The need to be obeyed
To not be stayed
But not to rise higher
And not to be delayed
The element of wrath
The temper that hath
Rage, anger, vengeance, and ire
The Warrior’s Path
Of righteous vindictiveness
The vengeance and vileness
Brutality to transpire
Of truth and justice
The spark for genius
The heat for the devious
This Element of Fire
This life that burns in us
Part III: Water
The element of dreams
Hidden reality, unseen
A liquid flow in slumber
Subconscious mental beams
Our intuition, instinctive thoughts
Like a river which flows as it aught
A carrying force slow to lumber
Not a stagnant mire which rots
Cool, level-headed emotions
Loving caresses and caring notions
Empathy and compassion among its number
Relationships, healings, and devotions
The mental vacations of quiet lucidity
Passing along in liquid fluidity
Inner journeys, astral travel while in slumber
The fork of bi-location, dual mobility
The current of our aspirations
Our dreams and mental distractions
This Element of Water
The ocean of a mind in inaction
Part IV: Earth
The element of substance
Of coherence and measured distance
The function of body and environment
Leadership, strength, and endurance
For air to stay, it needs gravity
For fire to burn, fuel to feed
For water to flow, it needs bedrock
For spirit to fill, a body
Earth, the vehicle for life
A physical shell paying time’s tithe
The sensor for pain and pleasure
The flesh that endures triumph and strife
As humans who walk forests and plains
Civilization’s leadership which reigns
Co-existing through bonds of fellowship
Of doubts and concerns no one blames
Strength of body, dominance of mind
Feats of courage and endurance of every kind
This Element of Earth
The world’s people together bind
Part V: Spirit
The element of essence
The eternal soul’s presence
The very core of being
Before cosmic transcendence
The force of will which drives
The other four elements besides
Being an element itself
With them it resides
A link to the Akashic Record
Universal consciousness to accord
Personal experience and feelings
Your life’s entry to afford
Legitimacy in your recollections
Your inner personal reflections
From the four elemental senses
Not intermittent selections
The five elements in conjunction
No random, fantastic assumption
This Element of Spirit
Completing, binding our function
