Wild Elements
By: Paul Spooner
June 10th, 2006
With crimson flames the night was lit
and round about the fire pit
the dancing shapes would dart and flit
and every figure every bit
as wild as before,
as wild as before.
Four airy zephyrs come and go
the oak leaves waving to and fro
come every cloud, begin to blow
will storm become (they do not know)
as wild as before,
as wild as before?
Now water falling from the sky
the streams and rivers ever ply
till foaming ocean drawing nigh
and all the while the seagulls cry
as wild as before,
as wild as before.
But up against the ocean stand
the never ending rocky strand
while mountains high look o're the land
still strong and hard and old and grand
and wild as before
as wild as before.
