ELEMENTS

Earth, water, fire, and wind are the elements
A new beginning but an old ending 

renewed absolved of our older problems 
The Earth hides within a shadow waitng for the end 

How does Earth survive when cries are floods 
starvation is droughts and fear is Earthquakes 

we are the Earth and we are life we are truth and lies 
Other planets cannot sustain me

Really Earth cries and laughs and yawns just like a child
Lost frightened and without anything waiting for me

Doors open and throught the days, months and years finally I am there on Earth
I finally have a home.

  1. I love the line "the earth cries, laughs, and yawns just like a child." And thus, the seasons! I enjoyed your poem, Anthony. Kori, thanks for posting. Keep up the great work.
