May 31st is Walt Whitman's birthday so I thought we might have a poet-themed scramble today. I'm not sure if he rates on this side of the world, but I bet some of you will definitely remember the iconic Oh Captain, My Captain from the Dead Poet's Society.
These are poets themselves, rather than titles of poems.
