High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! The Prayer of Columbus is a poem written by the late American poet, Walt Whitman. The poem evokes the enterprising spirit of the Christopher Columbus in a God-fearing light, who rediscovered the North American continent in 1492, leading to the colonization of the Americas by the emerging European powers.
