in Whitman's day the mind worked silently. Today we seek our soul knowledge amid the noises of the machine and advertising age. Good luck! Try to stand at the open barn door with Walt, gazing upon cows and horses. Then your soul will come whispering.

This wonderful and elegant poem illustrates the invisible filaments of our minds reaching for connections with a world so difficult to grasp. Like the spider we need to connect to survive.
