First comes fire, 🔥

An explosion in a void.

 

Next comes water, 🌊

For a world undestroyed.

 

Then there is air, ☁️

For all life to breathe.

 

Finally there's earth, 🌍

To our relief.

The author's comments:

I wrote this because I believe the world is made up of the elements, and maybe it was created by them too. Just my theory, don't judge! 

 

(By the way, I know clouds are made from water, I just couldn't find a suitable emoji for air other than 🌬️, which I don't really like)
