Whitman's Poetry

Another poet I really enjoyed reading about this semester was Walt Whitman.  Walt Whitman is a genuine poet because he writes his expression freely about his sentiments. Even though his poetry did not rhyme or seemed wordy it was still very powerful.  He has a free verse to make it meaningful and understanding.  He was an American poet whose collection Leaves of Grass is recognized in the history of American Literature.   I will always love his beauty and how truthful he is when it comes to poetry.  I have definitely enjoyed this semester and have learned a lot about American Literature.

  1. I really want to read more of Walt Whitman. I learned about him in High school and we read something of his. I forgot what we have read but it was one of his. I read a bit of the one he wrote about Lincoln's death.
