Leaves of Grass is one of the most significant books of 19th-century American literature, marking the beginning of a new era in poetry. Using free verse, without adhering to strict rhyme or other formal elements of poetry, Whitman favored imagery and metaphor, imbuing his poems with experiences and emotions, evoking unusually vivid and profound impressions in readers.

Whitman explores themes of spirituality, love for nature, people, and life, and expresses his philosophy of freedom, democracy, and equality, challenging readers to consider the meaning of life. Industrial themes also play a prominent role in his poetry: odes to factory chimneys, machine tools, and steam locomotives make Whitman a forerunner of so-called urban poetry.
