The Tale of 4

Should fire not tell
And wind not speak
Should rock not yell
And water not sing
What now to move
How now to stay afloat
Where now to hide
Nothing to shield you
Nothing to protect you

Should fire speak out
And wind howl out
Should rock now rumble
And water now scream
Is that what is needed
Is that the cure for all
Is that the solution
Too much to hold
Too fatal to keep

Replace all these with people
The fire to the man who guards
The wind to the woman who influence
The rock to the boy who fights
The water to the girl who heals
Does it make sense now
Is the picture now clear
Opinions differ
One thing is clear

Purpose in this world
The man protects you
The woman shapes you
The boy to be your spear
The girl to be your lifeline
Coexist they would say
Illusion to some
Guidance to most
There can never be one voice

But there can be one heart
You can never be full
Without them all
Incomplete
Disorganised
Put them together
And you get a soul
Everyone has a part to play
Whether big or small

Stay together
As one world
Overcome what lies ahead
With all we have
The fire who speaks
The wind who howls
The rock who rumbles
The water who screams

A tale of four
But so many more
That we must remember
Significant or insignificant
Stay together to fight a common enemy
