American Poet


I am very thankful to carry such wonderful history of the people in our culture that started poetry here in America. They carried themselves to a level of greatness and purity. There is an enormous list of names that started this chain which I am super excited and satisfied. All this people made a revolution and gave a touch of interested to what is called poetry. A lot of them dedicated all there life in writing verses and giving us the entertainment of listening to a poem.
William Cullen Bryant is one of “outside the box men”, he always thought and act outside the box with his unlimited ideas and professionalism in each verse he wrote. All of his poems have been classify as elegant and pure especially in his first expose poem named “Thanatopsis” as others call it as the noblest poem ever written in America. This young man was born in Massachusetts in 1794 and all through his life he gave us a piece of him in his live full poems. He was a humble man, numerous of times receive a few bills for his poems but he will always keep his head up and was satisfy because his hard work was been exposed. Bryant was not just a newspaper editor he was a poet that gave his inspiration to our country, which he will always be kept in our records and history. A
