~ a poem
On the beach
Is where the elements meet
All four are in immediate reach
Yet to grasp them all is quite a feat
Where the ocean touches
The earth starts to sprawl
All within the sky’s clutches
But where does the fire enthrall?
As I walk on the sunbaked surface,
It is only near the water
Under the breeze
At the edge of this land,
That my feet can cool
As I stand here in the sand,
In the flow of the four,
As I embody this land,
And embark from this shore
Here, I breathe out a singular Truth, eyes on our star,
If only the Father and the Sun knew
If only I saw my steps on the sand as more than scars
If only we seized that the FIRE is in you. ~
