Homage To Elements

Earthly, oceanic and ethereal powers of world What names should I give thee all. Greatest friend of mankind- Wounded and bruised you become adversary. By all means you are superior to us Yet we hesitate giving you reverence. Victory upon you is our cherished goal Ordained are your workings so mysterious Carrying the weight of this vast universe. So much older and ancient is your existence Eternal compared to our short lived presence. Dependent we are upon you for our breath and bread. Be kind to us, your enmity creates raze we dread.
