'For every atom belonging to me as good belongs to you' - Walt Whitman was way ahead of his time when he wrote and it seems, for some, he is still ahead of the time. Great poet! !

"Give me the splendid silent sun
with all his beams full-dazzling,
Give me juicy autumnal fruit ripe and red from the orchard,
Give me a field where the unmow'd grass grows,
Give me an arbor, give me the trellis'd grape,
Give me fresh corn and wheat, give me serene-moving animals teaching content," |
