When alive
we say so much than thriven trillion words
When our eyes are at their last blink
We say a moment of words.

Her eyes speak thousands of waters,
From ancient drops of the celestial soul,
Down paths of willing sweetness,
You say I'm like water
That can mean many things
Water can be smooth and calm
Gentle, cool to the touch
Water doesn't stay in one place
It doesn't settle down much
As the sun comes in
my coat starts to change
but not enough to alter my color.
when the rain falls down
i start to make sounds
but the big kids view me as an “other”.
The winds pick up

The element of Surprise: Su.
What I felt when I first walked into the Art classroom, exposed to a new environment.
The element of Acceptance: Ac.
What I felt when I turned in my first Commercial Art assignment.
Words like water,
wittling mountains into mines,
carving cathedrals into canyons.
Epitaph like earth,
steadfast in resolve,
yet constantly changing.
Fierce like fire,
Four elements:
earth, water, air and fire.
Which element are you?
I am earth.
Because I love the greens of grass, the swiftness of nature
moves beneath my barefeet. Earth is powerful to the eyes of me.
Tall waves crash,
High breakers bash,
"Strong am I"
It says midst clash,
"For Fire burns,
And Stone can churn,
And Man can Learn,
But Sea can last."
no words float on water
Lines composed on a walk between Hampstead and Highgate < London 1991
Let the Rain wash away all the pain from yesterday.
Let the Sun burn away all the hate from yesterday.
Let the Air whisk away all the hurt from yesterday.
Let the Earth bury away all the suffering from yesterday.
The universe is made of elements.
Everything on earth is made of bit sized little bits
From Hydrogen to Ceasium to Ununseptium
But there are three elements that make me tick
The rain pounds down
Shifting
Dancing through the air
Without a care in the world
And meeting the ground
In the harmonious union
Known as mud
The wind howls
Jealous of the rain
She once was a little flower
Not knowing how to speak
But when she did
Something beautiful happened
She became herself
And learned from all her failures
I'm always getting hurt
No matter who it is;
My brother,
My sister,
My father,
My mother....
I don't know what I did to deserve this
Always getting the worst of someone's anger
We have forgotten the most profound voices,
The roots to our own humanity.
Anger,
The lava vein of an erupting volcano,
Pulsates because the vain whistles in the same high pitch.
Fire and Water
Air and Earth
Older than all is Spirit
Fire and Water were first to meet
Fire so fierce
Water so tempering
Can't always get along
But both are needed to keep Chaos at bay
Time is just an element. Why do we make it more than that? Time is just an element, not a physical being we attract. Tell me now, why is time our biggest fear? Why is time divided into years? Why is time the crown jewel?
Unlike raindrops Two people cant be in the same place at the same time They can be next to each other But they cannot be where the other is Unless of course those two people are the same person As one they join Like water falling from the sky, the
Infinite Relationships of the Elements
Oceans crashing against her boundaries.
Angrily throwing herself against the craggy cliffs,
This painful Earth will soon no more exist
Someone please accept my last dying cry
I will vastly go but here is the twist
Lord out here,
in the wide open.
I seem to always have fear,
but my heart you have woven.
You have taken my broken,
what seemed like dead life.
You have awoken,
I am the wind inside the star,
I am the child seen from afar.
I am the water which few can drink,
I am the man who dares to think.
I am the fire burns ever bright,
I am the ancient, age-old might.
Swis, swish, she is air.
Floating and flowing, being a breeze.
Until she takes a stance.
Stomp, stomp, and she is earth.
Homely and humble, embracing every inch of stage.
Until she stares out at you.

The tree's scent was fresh
Frogs camouflaged the green grass
The river's cold splash
Canon's air was dry
Solid rock of orange surface
Paths of river flow
