A LOVER'S ANSWER by ROBERT UNDERWOOD JOHNSON

First Line: THOU SEEKEST, 'WHERE IS HEAVEN?' OH, LOVE, 'T IS
Last Line: IN HIGHEST HEAVEN AND THOU NOT THERE.
THOU seekest, "Where is heaven?" Oh, Love, 't is where
Thou shalt be, though thou be in hell.
"And what is hell?" Oh, darling, 't were to dwell
In highest heaven and thou not there.
