Walt Whitman changed the way poetry is viewed today by
his use of free verse. He was one of the first poets to use
this type of poetry which does not use regular rhyme scheme
and meter. Whitman was not appreciated or admired at first
for using this type of writing. Even though he abandoned
meter and rhyme schemes, he still used many poetic elements,
such as character, imagery, language, theme, tone, and form.

to us is his love for animals and nature. As I have stated

In all this poem does not only describe Whitman's way
of writing, it also displays his affectionate side towards
animals and nature. Although Whitman was not appreciated for
writing in free verse, he continued to write in that style
and changed the way poetry is viewed today for doing so.
