Sitting on a blanket
Watching the clouds drift by
But little do we know
The world is much higher than the sky
Underneath the ground
There's much more
The remnants of the past
Small pieces of history
And I sit here above it all
Watching the world
As the earth below me slowly breathes
Knowing it is a part of the universe
Part of something larger
The earth itself lives
As we all do
