What Am I After All

Title:     What Am I After All
Author: Walt Whitman [More Titles by Whitman]

What am I after all but a child, pleas'd with the sound of my own name? repeating it over and over;

I stand apart to hear--it never tires me.

To you your name also;

Did you think there was nothing but two or three pronunciations in the sound of your name?

[The end]
Walt Whitman's poem: What Am I After All
