Have you seen or measured it?

I have not seen
the earth tilt
on its axis
or revolve in
an orbit
around the sun

Nor have I measured
distance from
the earth to this
radiant one

Yet, I believe
earth tilts at twenty
three degrees
I believe earth
revolves three
hundred sixty
five and one forth days
I believe
the sun's about
ninety three
million miles from
our earthly homeland

So, why shouldn't
I believe
conception in
my body is
a baby
long before it
is born?

Yes very true. You do not see the baby but you know it is there.
We do not see our brains but we believe we have one in our head.
We do not see God but we know HE IS. Great message, unique style, well written.
