To Edgar - whom I love in verse <br />Whose soul has met a desperate curse <br />Never to know his life's own worth <br /> <br />To Edgar - whom I've longed to meet <br />Whose purpose left him incomplete <br />Whose very hand spelled out defeat <br /> <br />To Edgar - who has come to fame <br />Yet while he walked - it was in shame <br />A haunted life - but not in vain <br /> <br />To Edgar - whose shadow falls on my floor <br />Whose unseen hands tap on my door <br />Whose pen shall move.... ah.... NEVERMORE <br /> <br />© 1986 JVD<br /><br />Jane Van Doe<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/to-edgar-allen-poe-edgar-allen-poe/
