(Poem inspired by the four elements and its role in my being. Written for the poetry competition titled Elements, submitted this 3rd day of March 2016 @dup.)


Diligence is the fire that fuels my journey to success.
Humility is the water that balances the fiery side of my being.
Kindness is the air that envelops my hearty disposition.
Temperance is the earth that strengthens the foundation of my resolve.

Improving skill is the fire that fuels my journey to success.
Humbling myself is the water that balances the fiery side of my being.
Caring soul is the air that envelops my hearty disposition.
Abstaining from vices is the earth that strengthens the foundation of my resolve.

Persistence is the fire that fuels my journey to success.
Modesty is the water that balances the fiery side of my being.
Compassion is the air that envelops my hearty disposition.
Abstinence is the earth that strengthens the foundation of my resolve.
