I never saw a moor; <br />I never saw the sea, <br />Yet know I how the heather looks <br />And what a billow be. <br /> <br />I never spoke with God, <br />Nor visited in heaven. <br />Yet certain am I of the spot <br />As if the checks were given.<br /><br />Emily Dickinson<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/i-never-saw-a-moor/
