Where, oh where,
Can somewhere be?
In outer space?
Beneath the sea?
Is somewhere
Always far away?
In other lands?
Beyond today?
Is somewhere
Always farther still?
Beyond the woods,
Beyond the hill?
It's difficult
To be aware
Of somewhere else
Until you're there.
from Is Somewhere Always Far Away? Poems About Places by Leland B. Jacobs, illustrated by Jeff Kaufman, 1993, Henry Holt and Company
