Five Elements Poem by Ananta Madhavan
Five Elements
An ancient Hindu sage divided Cosmos into
Five basic elements: Earth, Water, Fire, Air and Space.
I like to think that we humans have personalities
That correspond to these elements.
I believe that I am Water, sometimes contained and still,
Sometimes flowing in a stream or lake or bay. Even a well
Deep down may reflect the sky, an overhanging branch,
A few stars at night.
The word for 'atom' was 'paramaanu', I understand.
