Between Fire, Wind, and Water

Standing in the shallow water
Ripples echo from my feet
Small pebbles float upwards 
     through the air
A trail of fire slowly crawls
     up the streams of air
A breeze brushes my face
Slowly, I raise my hands from
     my side until they are parallel
     to the ground
Clockwise swirls of wind begin 
     circling my feet
Slow burning fires light the 
     ground with an orange glow
Peace pressed into my chest
Glory flows into my fingertips
     and toes, flowing from within
Rocks float upwards in the air
The shallow water burns brighter
     with orange fire
The swirls of wind travel higher,
     growing more intense
I stomp the ground and let 
     out a deafening roar
The fires reach above my head
I twirl my arms and jump in the 
     air, spinning
I dance a wild dance
A tornado filled with water, 
     fire, and rocks surrounds me
A torrent of power, a whirlwind 
     of peace, a storm of hope
And with this weapon of worship,
     God will destroy the enemy
