The Raven Comments

Rating: 4.6

Once upon a midnight dreary, while I pondered, weak and weary,
Over many a quaint and curious volume of forgotten lore,
While I nodded, nearly napping, suddenly there came a tapping,
As of some one gently rapping, rapping at my chamber door.

This is a master piece of all the poems i have read. I have read it over 10 times to be able to master this excellent work. It takes two to tango, I believe this poem recited would be better if done so by two people. The gothic atmosphere goes to bring out the impeccable imagination of Edgar.

I have always been thrilled by Edgar Allan Poe. He is so often taken as a poet of horror. Poe has written over (361) Vols. which range from shale mining to tales of Murder, where he deploys his master detective M.Augustine. I too am a great fan of the Raven only this and nothing more.

I memorized this poem to quote while standing in front of an English class when I was in high school. I still remember parts of it and I am now 86 years old. It's one of my favorites!

Regarding " The Raven, " credited by historians to Edgar Allan Poe, I have a great deal of evidence that the real author was Mathew Franklin Whittier, younger brother of poet John Greenleaf Whittier.
