Walt Whitman’s poem "To a Locomotive in Winter" and Emily Dickinson’s poem "I Like to See it Lap Miles" are both based on what had been upcoming in their era: locomotives. Whitman used Old English to protray his admiration with the train‚ especially it’s physique and ’will’‚ while Dickinson uses modern language to observe what the train does and how it acts.

Walt Disney Commemorative Speech The Man Behind the Mouse Introduction: I remember when I was just a kid and a stick became my sword and a trashcan lid became my shield.
