Walt Whitman "As I Ebb'd With the Ocean of Life"
A small sampling for you all, since it is actually 3 pages long:
...Ebb, ocen of life, (the flow will return) Cease not your moaning you fierce old mother, Endlessly cry for your castaways, but fear not, deny not me, Rustle not up so hoarse and angry against my feet as I touch you or gather from you
I mean tenderly by you and all, I gather for myself and for this phantom looking down where we lead, and following me and mine.
Me and mine, loose windrows, little corpses, Froth, snowy white, and bubbles....
