Poetry, VOLUME 4

Poem: “Out of May’s Shows Selected” Walt Whitman [Vol. 4, #10.5]

Out of May’s Shows Selected
Walt Whitman

Apple orchards, the trees all cover’d with blossoms;
Wheat fields carpeted far and near in vital emerald green;
The eternal, exhaustless freshness of each early morning;
The yellow, golden, transparent haze of the warm afternoon sun;
The aspiring lilac bushes with profuse purple or white flowers.
