This dream must have been a kind of nightmare. I love Edgar Poe's poems and I have read this one too. Yours is a bit different but equally nice.

Comment from L.A.Matthies
FABULOUS!!!!! The perfect mix of elegance and macabre. Of course the images enhance the feeling, however your work stands alone in need of no assistance! Thank you for this supernatural jaunt!

Comment from Twilightspire
You hinted at it in a reply before, you are Edgar Allen Poe! Lol. Seriously though, I love this poem. Your use of anachronistic words in itself evokes a timeless, beautiful and familiar quality. Mixing up an old work and making it your own, while turning it into a creepy story works so well its scary. Excellent job, my friend. I really enjoyed this piece.

Comment from Righteous Riter
Good use of the aabb rhyme scheme. Good end and perfect rhyming with bolt/jolt...more/tore. Good descriptive words that draw a clear image in my mind. Good alliteration. Good clear message and story telling. I see nothing that I would add or take out of this piece. Good job.

Very haunting. Thank you for sharing, I often use my dreams to write from as well. I wish I could carry the imagery you do. Well done! The music really sets the tone!

Comment from TOMORAL
This is brilliant and an awesome take on Poe's Raven. Scary and the picture of Lenore is haunting me right now. There's nothing here to regret. You orchestrate, Maestro!

Comment from Shirley E Kennedy
You can never read too much poetry.Lol.
Did YOU say YOU were terrified? I don't believe it.
Another of those spine tingling,creepy yet mesmerising supernatural poems.
Clever and superbly crafted with a message for us all-"Watch your back for... LENORE IS REVISITING.

Comment from Joan E.
I was first introduced to poetry by reading a book of poems on my family's bookshelf, which contained many entries by Poe. Your poem resonated for me, and I can understand why you were so affected and shared your dream's subject. I admired your rhymed couplets and elevated language plus vivid imagery. The illustrations and animation reinforce the theme well. Poe would be proud of your recounting his tale..."nevermore". Cheers- Joan
