Thank you, it has always been a favourite of mine. I used to live on the north Norfolk coast and Crossing the Bar was a perfect illustration of how the rising tide swept around the 'bar' beautiful.
Thank you. I looked up the definition of “bourne” and found it means “limit” or “boundary” which gave that verse a greater meaning for me. It’s an acknowledgement of the great distance between “time and place”, which are earthly concepts, and eternity, which is where we who have been redeemed, will meet God face to face. Luke 16:19-31; 1 Corinthians 15
Great interpretation, and ideas beautifully connected. Would love you to talk about the structure the poems as well. How the content is carried by this style? The tone and music may also be explained please!

It is a poem that gives me a sense of complete peace about death.
Thank you sir

Am familiar with this poignant poem .It's beautiful,albeit bleak and sombre in tone.
It is about an ineluctable reality in all our lives.
