Opposite Elements



Fire's burning - golden flame,
Do not touch at peak)
Sometimes crazy and insane-
Sometimes quite and weak.
Don't forget - feed it with love,
You'll receive the same.
Always pamper it - if no -
Without it dies flame.
Water's stronger than a flame -
It destroys or guides.
It can always keep it same -
So hot and so bright.
Water's powerful - it can
cover flame with tide.
But it also can forgive
Sins of both in past.
They can ruin all the world
And theirselves - at once!
But they can shine both with love))
If in loved...they both))
