Water, flowing and alive
Air, free and unseen
Fire, wild and dangerous
Elements, all coexisting
Balance, nature's song
Water, reflecting sky
Earth, supporting all life's forms
Air, whispering breeze
Fire, consuming all
Elements, in perfect cycle
Nature, eternal call

One Minute to Noon
“OK, guys!” I screech over the macaw-like chatter in my sophomore English class. My students are sharing mementos they accumulated during summer vacation. The assignment is to interview each other and write an expository essay about another student’s treasure: Misty’s coquina shells and sand dollars from Florida, Ruth’s two Navajo pottery mugs from New Mexico, Roxy’s perfume from Paris, Kevin’s chocolate from Hershey Pennsylvania, a picador’s sword from a bullfight in San Fermin Spain, where one of my favorite students, Manny Pérez, ran with the bulls at festival.
