Position:Home>Poetry> Does anyone have a suggestion for a word to use in this line?


Question:In the fourth line it says "I am there", but I feel it should be "I am ______ there".....I just can not think of the word to put there! Anyone have any suggestions? Or any other suggestions for the poem, in general?

Paris in my Dreams
By: Me

Beneath this speckled sky,
of another place, I dream.
As I close my eyes,
I am there.
This old yet modern city,
the one of love and romance,
runs vigorously through my veins,
like the water in the Seine.
I've not been there
in the flesh and blood,
But many a night,
after all are asleep,
I replace reality
with imagination.
I see the lovers dancing
twirling hand in hand,
beneath the subtle glow
of the avenue lights.
Mona's eyes stare back at me,
as I ponder the story
behind her cryptic smile.
A drip of sweet smelling rain
kisses my nose, as I look up
to view the Tower's top,
Only to find myself
merely gazing
at the stars.

Beneath the speckled sky,
or another place, I dream.
I close my eyes,I am almost there

Beneath the speckled sky,
or another place,I dream.
As I close my eyes,
I arrived there

Beneath the speckled sky,
or another place, I dream.
As I close my eyes,
I just got there

I am there...always been there
