Zooming In

By -
The universe--
Oh, so big
Seems void of anything
But contains everything
Billions and billions
Can't describe it
That universe

Our Galaxy
Stars and Stars
Planets and Planets
So many colors
Just floating in space
But such structure
Wonderful, beautiful place

Our solar system
The sun in the middle
The center of our lives
And our revolutions
The other planets
Someday we will find
What's there

Earth is-
Well, it is our home
But so much more
The home to all 
The animals, plants, and us
Humans
The oceans, and the land...

United States of America
Our Land
Our Freedom
Our Liberty
A land that welcomes our gratitude
In all 50 States
And in mine

Texas
The biggest of them all
Well except that outcast up north
Our rodeos, baptist churches, and Whataburgers,
Gig 'em
It will snow tomorrow?
Yes

In Rockwall
Yes, just east of Big D
tiny, tiny county
With a dang huge courthouse
It's my home
Do I ever want to leave?
Not really




I open the map
It shows the earth
I love to zoom in
All the way to Rockwall
Everything is so huge
When you zoom out
But if you zoom in-
A lot
A ton
All the way in
Street view
Things are much smaller
You can appreciate them
Because of their hugeness
And their tininess
Now read it again
Go to google maps and zoom
All the way to your house
I'm sure you can do it
And see things as they get bigger
As you get smaller
See them shrink
And grow
And realize
The most important thing of all

They are so great. My second family, I mean. They come over every once in a while and their smiles light up the world. They comfort me and never fail to make me laugh. Our families correspond way too well and we laugh about that. I know they will always be there for me and those are the kind of people I want in my life. :)

Pink hair and a backwards hat And that freakin awesome beard The gages and sleeve That's who I like to be :) Sometimes I close my eyes And I see myself on stage I'm hammering the snare It's so loud you're scared With my best friend beside me He's singing what he believes I couldn't feel better And as my hair gets redder And my clothes get whiter I feel it pulling tighter That's my life That feels like my life I wanna show the world whats right

But now I know my Gods so powerful He'll lift me up every time I fall He has a plan and though I might not know why He allows us to fall down sometimes He won't give us more than we can't handle  So ima light my candle I'll worship the king With every song I sing Every word I speak And every thought I think Because he created me He's not ashamed of me Every time I slip and I fall I'm still his creation And though I'm not worthy at all He is worthy of celebration So join with me Sing with me He's almighty That's my God That is my God Continuation of Strength and Gravity
