As above the wide expanse of the universe
So below the grand magnitude of our spirit
As within the love and grace that resides
So without we spread it to whoever we meet
Life is hidden below the layers of apparent
Dig deeper to find its meaning and richness

Sky limits our physical existence
The earth supports us from below
It’s the fire in our souls that elevates us
To the spiritual plane high above the sky
And teaches us to immerse ourselves below
And search for the purpose of life within ourselves!
