The Four Elements
Earth, Air, Fire, Water… (My research shows Fire can be pronounced with 1 OR 2 syllables and in one line I’m using it as 2 syllables and in another only 1)

Earth is a planet!
Soil is an element too….
We’re ALL made from soil.
The air element…
Deep space has no oxygen!
Neither does water!
The first energy?
Fire was the first prana! (Fire as two syllable)
Fire is pure chi/prana. (Fire as one syllable)
Fire uses air. (Fire as two syllables)
Two elements combining!
That’s metaphysics….
(SEE how the word “fire” even acts as a creative changing element in this haiku?!?)
