Healing Elements Poem by Megan du Toit

I bathed in the sun
And let the light penetrate deep into my veins
To warm my frozen blood to flow at a steady pace
……I bathed in the sun

I played in the rain
And let the drops aggressively caress my skin
To water my dryly cracked soul
……I played in the rain

I stood in the wind
And let the breeze kiss my lips & carry its fingers through my bush of hair
And let it untangle my heart
……I stood in the wind

I ran across the earth
And let my toes be cupped by a mixture of soil and sod
To steal some energy and take on the world
……I ran across the earth

Just as I have been healed by the elements
……So I give it life
