Walt Whitman

Read Whitman’s “When Lilacs Last in the Dooryard Bloom’d”. Then choose two other of Whitman’s poems to read.

Write a brief biography (don’t forget those birth/death dates) of Walt Whitman (3-4 sentences), and then another paragraph telling me which poems you read. Give a brief summary of “When Lilacs Last in the Dooryard Bloom’d” including the emotion and meaning presented.
