Was there ever a time when you were happy?
Were all midnights bleak and dreary?
What weighed so upon your soul?
Perhaps the world will never know.
Did you ever see the beauty in your night?
How did you take your final flight?
Now I gladly take up the pen for you-
In your midnight feathers remain traces of blue.

Beautiful train of thought elegantly penned from the heart. Yours poems are quite insightful, they bristle with emotions and knowledge. Indeed you've gladly taken up the pen for the enigmatic icon of poetry, Edgar Allen Poe. A lovely memorial for a legend of monumental proportion. Thanks for sharing Washburn. Please read my poem POETIC MASTERPIECE.
