Walt Whitman poem


"MONG the men and women the multitude,

I perceive one picking me out by secret and divine signs,

Acknowledging none else, not parent, wife, husband, brother, child, any nearer than I am,

Some are baffled, but that one is not--that one knows me.

Ah lover and perfect equal,
I meant that you should discover me so by faint indirections,
And I when I meet you mean to discover you by the like in you."



I picked this poem because it says you should get to know people before you judge them. If people got to know people better we all would get along better.

Writing topics

Do you agree or disagree with the following statement? Television has destroyed communication among friends and family. Use specific reasons and examples to support your opinion.
I think t.v has destroyed communication between family and friends. I think this because kids today are less active the before we had t.v. Instead of kids wanting to go out and do stuff with family and friends they would rather watch t.v.
