I saw them cross the twilight of an age, The sun-eyed children of a marvellous dawn, The great creators with wide brows of calm, The massive barrier-breakers of the world

and we shall continue our annotations and questionings!
I teach straying from me, yet who can stray from me?
I follow you whoever you are from the present hour,
My words itch at your ears till you understand them.
(Walt Whitman, Song Of Myself, v. 38)
I have searched all the bookshops around here for a copy of Leaves of Grass, the most spiritual work of Whitman, I am still looking for a copy of any of his works. For now I must do with studies and journals.
I posted some other quotes for you, I keep them small because just a few lines mostly does the trick for me.
There is a powerful secret woven into Whitmans poetry, and illumination, compassion and dedication.
Hi Calm,
ReplyDeleteThis had me pulling out my old copy of Leaves of Grass. It's been years since I have read Whitman. Best wishes to you.
