You are earth and water
to my fire and air

My once sailor
who now works the earth
and sweats the salty sea from his pores

My dark-haired, dark-eyed
"Green man" who holds me,
connects me to the earth
while
my thoughts skim through the air,
sweeping out towards the fiery sun.

You are earth and water
to my fire and air.

Your hair the deep brown
of rich fertile loam,
mine
the color of gold and orange sunrise.

You swim.
I want to fly.

You are earth and water
to my fire and air.

You complete me.
