Poetry Friday




The art of art, the glory of expression and the sunshine of the light of letters, is simplicity.

~ Walt Whitman ~

  1. Thanks for sharing this quote. It reminded me of how much I enjoyed the movie Dead Poet's Society when I was a teenager. I just found this reading of Walt Whitman's "Oh Captain! My Captain!" on YouTube. The poem was an important part of the movie, if my memory is serving me right: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HSAymj4hp7Y
