#Listen, listen to this song Whitman sings. This was written in the mid 19th century - powerful and timeless. #poetrymatters @LazyDays

The real or fancied indifference of some man or woman I love, The sickness of one of my folks - or of myself ... or ill doing ... or loss or lack of money ... or depressions or exaltations, They come to me days and nights and go from me again, But they are not the Me myself.

Anna40 @Faibka Good morning, Fabiola! Wishing you a wonderful weekend! Hope to see you soon! 7y
Faibka Wonderful quote! Thanks Anna, wishing you a great weekend as well! See you soon 😊 7y
