I NEVER SAW A MOOR

I NEVER SAW A MOOR

BY. Emily Dickinson
I never saw a moor,
I never saw the sea;
Yet know I how the heather looks,
And what a wave must be.
I never spoke with God,
Nor visited in heaven;
Yet certain am I of the spot
As if the chart were given.
This poem says 'I' never saw a moor and the sea, but 'I' know ths heather looks, and a wave.
Like knowing this, 'I' also know God even 'I' never meet God and visit in heaven.
I think this poem is saying about we need belief like a child.
