Everyone says how beautiful they think this poem is but if find it more twisted and disturbing. The guy that Poe is writing about is literally laying next to his rotting dead wife in the closed space of the tomb...

I've used this poem by Edgar Allan Poe in my declamation during my second year in high school... and I won the championship. That's why this poem is something really memorable for me. I love how much the author remembers Annabel... ^_^

Edgar Allan Poe left us here “many and many a year ago, ” (160 years) in our poetic “kingdom by the sea, ” to dream, as he did, of our “Annabels.”

What a gift we have ever, that none can dissever, our souls from the ones that we love.
We have Poe and Annabel giving us beautiful
Dreams as we continue to love.

I am inspired by Edgar Allan Poe and many others, such as William Shakespeare, Rudyard Kipling, and Samuel Taylor Coleridge, who wrote iambic lines.

Thirty-seven years ago I wrote: “It’s this bound verse that captured me;
Poetic pen and all.
It’s why I write iambic lines
And have myself a ball.”

I was gone from Poem Hunter for much of the past three years because of health issues. I’m back now, approaching age 87 next month, more enthusiastic than ever.

I love this beautiful haunting poem...who would dare not to dream about ethernal love?
The kind of love that chases you trough your entire existence, pure pain, that one
would rather keep, like a ghost in the closet...forever.
