*This assignment was to write an emulation (copycat poem) of our favourite professional poem. I chose Elizabeth Barrett Browning's 'How Do I Love Thee'. Here's my version :)
Where You Are
How can I know You are there? Shall I name the ways?
I feel You in the sun and wind and sea
My body knows, so I know why
Must there be Dark and Still and Dry.
I know You in the whisper of a
subdued heart, by light of pain and joy.
I see You in the sacrifice of the love
that spins the world.
I know You with a certainty not shaken,
I hear You in the words they cry,
And the life that stirs within us
When we should be left to die.
I know You are there
Because I am here
And so is beauty and goodness and love.
They may question, and wander to Where
But still I will know You are there.
