Welcome to Gaia! ::

I love the poem he wrote about the married woman he was in love with. I can't remember what it was called... Her first name was Frances, I think, but he hid her name within the poem, which was marvelously clever.

Poe's writing style is very delicious, really. Not as appealing to me as Swinburne or Brooke's, I'd say, but lovely nonetheless.

Lenore? Annabelle Lee? Or one of those with the initials? XP

I love Poe's work so much! I even managed to do my English coursework on 5 of his short stories compared to 'Dracula' on their presentation of life and death. I love the sound of his poetry most though.

I love him. As a matter of fact my favourite poem was written by him. It's called 'Alone'. You guys should check it out, it inspired me to write quite a few of my poems. : ]

For poetry I like The Raven and Anabelle Lee

For prose I like The Masque of the Red Death and The Causqe of Amontillado (Or however that's spelled) lol.

Yes. It is a little cliche, but Poe is classic like Mary Shelly's Frankenstein and I think everyone should read him.

I love poe he is wounderful I love Annebell lee, the black cat, dream land, for anne,and a few more but I really like alll of his work I for get the one poem but it inspired me to paint a picture I got like 400 dollars of it but ya



here is alone
From childhood's hour I have not been
As others were; I have not seen
As others saw; I could not bring
My passions from a common spring.
From the same source I have not taken
My sorrow; I could not awaken
My heart to joy at the same tone;
And all I loved, I loved alone.
Then- in my childhood, in the dawn
Of a most stormy life- was drawn
From every depth of good and ill
The mystery which binds me still:
From the torrent, or the fountain,
From the red cliff of the mountain,
From the sun that round me rolled
In its autumn tint of gold,
From the lightning in the sky
As it passed me flying by,
From the thunder and the storm,
And the cloud that took the form
(When the rest of Heaven was blue)
Of a demon in my view.
