*Collaboration, Nada started and Katie wrote every other stanza thereafter
Walking through the forest,
Reaching for the stars,
Imagining myself
With power of the earth
The sky is slowly turning blue
Daylight just coming in
The trees surrounding me
I can smell last nights rain
The earth covers me,
Sheltering me from the water,
A beautiful lady stands before me,
With brown skin,
And green hair
The leaves protect me from the rain
As I continue my journey
Deeper into the forest I go
The air whispering around me
Another beautiful maiden,
With transparent body,
She walks beside me,
As Earth protects me from the wind.
The breeze blowing my hair
Walking deeper and deeper into the forest
I hear a soft noise, curiously walking
Until I reach a waterfall
Is that another girl,
Bathing inside the waterfall,
"She's water," Air says,
I notice now Airs hair, snow flake white.
Walking over to the waterfall
Stopping to smell the flowers on the way
Such a beautiful scent
The green grass is soft on my bare feet
She looks at me,
With her watery eyes,
We hear the cackling,
Of nearby fire
What's the noise?, I wonder
I hear the pattering of animal feet
Running through the forest
Then I can see smoke above the trees in the distance
Shes here, The mighty fire,
Earth, air and water cover me as she comes,
Wondering why she wasn't invited into the party
The smoke continues to rise above the trees
The fire spreading throughout the forest
Panic and fear in the air now
As the forest slowly burns
Water stops the fire,
Sending seeps of it's servants to put it out,
As more fire soldiers come marching in,
Air soldiers come from above,
While Earth soldiers come from below.
The rain pours rapidly from the sky
A storm starting up
The fire slowly dying down
As the elements combine
Water , Air, Earth and Fire,
Come from the ground,
As the elements spin around me,
And lift me from the air,
I can hear their stories,
As I look at myself on the water,
I can see all the elements
Such an experience I had that day
My walk amoung the woods
Water, air, earth and fire combined
What a beautiful thing
