Of course we all know that Noah is a poetry lover and liked to read Walt Whitman's "Leaves of Grass." Is anyone else a Whitman fan or a fan of any other poet?

Whitman is one of my faves, as well as James Whitcomb Riley
I suggest going to an old book store for good poetry books. They have -- a certain feel when they're old and used....I can't descibe it.. but I love it.
