Tonight Kim Russell of dVerse Poets suggests that we linger poetically with one of the elements: Earth, Fire, Water, Air or Ether. As I (or we) have a tendency to poly-ele-mental-ity, I ended up feaaturing three (earth, fire and ether) of the five elements and giving a passing role to the other two, air and water.

Elemental: 
earth, fire, ether, 
with attendant air-water froth

	I race across the thrift-specked sand
my feet toe-curling in the turf;
brave multitudes where'er I stand
and bubbled foam-slicks on the surf

The Sun is glorious in its stance
its generosity is real
and in the rainbows, sunbeams dance
as we rotate the Compass Wheel

I long to be "with All The Things",
a Pan-oplied ethereal light
the Multiverse of She Who Sings
as Triple Goddess: "Lo, the Bride".
