Dead? No, not dead, not away! I am here! Though not within your vision, yet always near. In the very air you breathe -- I am here. In the cool of the early morn; In the warmth of the noonday sun; In the glory of the sunset glow; In the peace of the evening dusk; In the depths of the sky of night -- I am here. Blended into the ocean's blue; Melted into the drifting cloud; When rain and sun unite together, And stretch across the misty sky In the rainbow arch of color -- I am here. Though not within your vision, yet always near. In the very air you breathe -- I am here. Dead? No, not dead, not away! I am here! | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...A FRIEND KILLED IN THE WAR by ANTHONY HECHT FOR JAMES MERRILL: AN ADIEU by ANTHONY HECHT TARANTULA: OR THE DANCE OF DEATH by ANTHONY HECHT CHAMPS D?ÇÖHONNEUR by ERNEST HEMINGWAY NOTE TO REALITY by TONY HOAGLAND THE COAT OF FIRE by EDITH SITWELL |
