Thanks to the several librarians who sent me the poem, or offered to.
This is the complete poem and the teacher was thrilled. LM_NET is
great.

I found this but not sure if it's the whole poem or not:
Karla Kuskin's heartwarming poem "To You": "I think I could walk /
through the simmering sand / if I held your hand. / I think I could swim
/ the skin shivering sea / if you would accompany me. / And run on
ragged, windy heights, / climb rugged rocks / and walk on air. / I think
I could do anything at all, / if you were there."

It IS hard to find! Sara J
