Whitman believes that we have an opportunity to "contribute a verse", he explains that everyone has something to give to the world. In today's world, we increasingly get swept up in the chaos, in the responsibilities of daily life , we go to school to get a job to support a family. It is easy to get lost in the present, and to forget the bigger picture: That you are here , that life exists and identity. My interpretation of this line in the poem makes me feel that Whitman was practically saying "I don't know for sure what we are on this earth to do, but just the fact that we have the opportunity to do something is enough". Poetry is in all of us, art is all of us. We humans are capable of many things, that we yet have not come to
