I Am.
Elemental
Earth builds my bones and
Wind my lungs, Fire my spirit,
and Rivers my blood.
About the Creator
Kristen Balyeat
Words fly to me on the wind, bump into me as I'm strolling the city, splash me in the face while I rest by the river, and shake me awake in the middle of the night– I’m humbly one of the many vessels they use to come to life.
