Nan Byrne

Elements

Life is simple physics
We are part of the material universe

Like the elements we rise
Only as high as the mass

That pushes us up or floats
Below us like a raft

We like water or air or even fire
No more choose the path

We follow than a drop of rain
Chooses direction as it races

Across a car windshield
Or grain decides which way

To bend when the wind blows
Into or against

Next Poem
