Where We Go When We Go

In this episode, Phil Rowe explores two quiet yet profound reflections on death — and what it means to those left behind.We begin with Because I could not stop for Death by Emily Dickinson, a poem that invites us to consider death not as something to fear, but as a calm and curious companion. Then we move to Song (When I am dead, my dearest) by Christina Rossetti, whose measured tenderness offers us a different kind of comfort — and a gentle release from grief.Both poems speak with the hush of still rooms and the weight of what remains unsaid. Together, they form a quietly powerful meditation on memory, legacy, and letting go.Featured Poems:– Because I could not stop for Death by Emily Dickinson– Song (When I am dead, my dearest) by Christina RossettiNew episodes of A Voice Like This are released every Monday, with occasional bonus episodes exploring the darker edges of poetry’s world.
