Quarternian: "Spirit"

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Fire raged higher

Air made it flare

Fire was a liar

Air gave prayer

Earth lost worth

Water steamed its slaughter

Earth brought mirth

Water gave quarter

The Fire was Dire

The Air laid it bare

Its spire twisted in Fire

A nightmare in the Air

The Earth joined the firth

The Water made its mortar

New birth shot from the Earth

They caught Spirit in the Water
