Heights and Depths

"Heights And Depths"


               The Heavens and their heights are beyond all measure!
               How many Heavens do actually exist?
               Do they continue one beyond another?
               I ponder as a height and depth theorist!

               Is there truly a sky beyond the sky
               which the human eye will never see?
               When our spirits go to be with HIM,
               can we see and touch eternity?

               When it comes to the depths of the earth,
               what truly is considered deep?
               How does one measure the earth's lowest point,
               and what secrets do the depths of the deep keep?

               Does it stop at the bottom of the deepest ocean
               or does it go straight to the earth's core?
               How far down is the deepest deep?....
               and at the bottom, is it deeper more?

               Now the heights of the Heavens
               and the depths of the earth,
               do they even remotely compare,
               to heights of our emotions 
               and the depths of our hearts?
               Could any comparative measurement 
               truly be fair?
