'Fuego' - 100 Day Poetry Contest Day 61
Welcome... To a 100 day journey into the poetic minds of the @steemitschool writing community!
Today's piece is the beginning of what will be a 4 part tribute of gratitude and acknowledgement of the 4 sacred elements.
I've started with fire because... that's where this all began right...
With one helluva Explosion...
BANG
13 million odd years later...
We've brought ourselves here...
What happens next?
Let's not remember, without the sacred element of fire,
Life simply would not exist.
With Love

Fuego
Spawned at the dawn of history...
Forging Universes.
Mutating Matter
Warming
Heating
Burning
Destroying
Life-Giving.
Destruction always leads to creation.
Transformation.
Transmutation.
Now -
So many billions of years later...
The ancient grandfather spirit still watches over us -
From Above,
And from Below.
From the Ends of the Cosmos...
to the
Centre of the Core.
You’ll feel it.
Just go outside and feel his enlivening touch on your skin today.
Know that he fuels the fire inside of you....
Fuego.
Provider of the heat that gives us growth.
Provider of the warmth that keeps us alive.
Visions come through if you sit in his company long enough.
An infinite well of sacred knowledge and wisdom,
Dating back throughout Infinity.
A truly mesmerizing display of Divinity -
Working in harmony with 3 special siblings...
A synergy,
Sustaining life for -
You and Me.
A true reflection of -
Creativity.
The dancing wings of the ferocious flames hold...
Mystery
Infinity
The Forever Fire of the Universe
Flames Flicker
For Eternity.

@hartfloe,
Notwithstanding the Periodic Table of Elements (kidding, just being an a**hole), good poem. The Four Elements ... great idea for a poem quartet.
Of all the things we take for grant it, surely the sun, and fire, have to rank near the top.
I think in truth, we take all 4 for granted -
We take the air we breathe for granted and continue to pollute it day and night.
We take our sacred water for granted - the water that we drink and bathe ourselves in - the waters that make up our very body - and we continue to dump our waste of poison into it.
Earth - I don't need to say much there hehe.
And as you say.. .we definitely take fire for granted.
That's why I always honor the 4 elements and give thanks for them during daily gratitude practices :)
Thanks for your read and comment my friend.. It's much appreciated.
Today's one was an ode to Earth -
Mother
I hope you enjoy!
With Love
