A possible reading of the poem's central argument

A possible reading of the poem's central argument

One interpretation to test is that, in Homeland, Sophia de Mello Breyner presents homeland as both a physical place of origin and an inner centre of identity. Examine the poem's references to place, the speaker's first-person voice, and its searching or declarative statements: do they support this double meaning, or do they suggest a different idea of belonging?
