After Walt Whitman

We read Walt Whitman today and were inspired to write our own poems.
Click here for the results.


from Song of Myself (from section 1)
By Walt Whitman

I celebrate myself,
And what I assume you shall assume,
For every atom belonging to me as good belongs to
You.

I loafe and invite my soul,
I lean and loafe at my ease… observing a spear of
Summer grass.
