A grey strip

The world is a grey strip 

A strip which engulfs and protects our lives 

A strip which can only be viewed from far away for it is larger than we could ever imagine 

The strip is you and me 

The world is a grey strip 

A strip which is easy to pass by 

A strip that many would rather go about their lives than stop and admire its beauty 

The strip is my family and yours 

The world is a grey strip 

A strip that is so beautifully complex 

A strip that cannot be broken into pieces and observed by a microscope 

The strip is my culture and yours 

The world is a grey strip

A strip of many colors only made grey by its incredible size

A strip that adds color and depth to the world with a single glance 

The strip is you and me
