Today my name is fire
Burning taller than oak trees;
I started when a little spark
had caught a little breeze.

I’m burning hot, very mad
‘Cause they told me to cease;
But they can’t stop me , nor control me;
No animal would dare come near me.

Now that I am water,
I’m calm as calm can be;
I flow on down the river ‘till
I reach the calm vast sea.

Healing, calming, life giving
Are things that I perform;
Though soothing aches is easer
When my heart is warm.

Now they call me air
And I’ll say this to you;
You just may not see me here
But you see what I can do.

Cooling, moving, breath taking
When I am fairly light;
But when I’m confused, spinning ‘round
It’s a very tragic sight

Now I go by earth,
And right here’s where I’ll stay;
I’ll stand right here, high, rough and tough
Every single day.

I’m hard to move, you can’t shift me,
Not one teeny, tiny bit;
You can’t deal with a stubborn rock
That’s had a little fit.

So for the future you should know
To never ever try me
‘Cause you may never ever know
Which element I might be

Mad as fire, stubborn rock
Or water, calm and still
Free as air you never know
The way that I feel
