somewhere i have never travelled




This poetry does not talk about a travel someone is willing to take, it talks about a person, moreover describing a woman, an enormous experience. The author has used abstract thoughts which are hard to understand in some sayings from the beginning “somewhere i have never travelled, gladly beyond any experience, your eyes have their silence,” eyes are in reality silent, but the meaning of this could be interpreted in any form, it is said the eyes are the window to our soul, and as they claim to be silent, the soul of this person must be peaceful and innocent. When the author mentions “frail gesture” we get to undersant thar he is talking about a woman and he continues by explaining how close he felt to her. The feeling this woman gives to the man are so powerful that they surround him and transform him. Those feeling became part of him which can be implied by the line “in your most frail gesture are things which enclose me, or which i cannot touch because they are too near” she and her aura are so closed to him so that he cannot touch them. In this poem the person experiencing those feeling does not take a physical journey, he takes a journey through the eyes of a adored person.
