Edgar My Darling

 

Oh whispery muses

Delectation’s perfume

I fell deeply into love

Over the brightest blights

Of the stalking moon…

 

A stark feral he was

All bound in constraints

Typed upon parchments

Those bitter papery saints…

 

Edgar …my darling

My grandmother’s rue

Old fashioned wallets

In bitterness confused…

 

The books of the sedum

Poets moored and defined

She shouted to me that day

You will never be confined…

 

Oh darling-dearest, my Edgar

Allan and your sweetest Poe

The first muse to ever touch me

Upon poetry I searingly now sow…

Vickie, I like your poetic Poe tribute. Edgar remains an enigma. A man with many challenges and personal demons. Yet a masterful figure
with the pen. I wish you love and peace my dear friend. Jon Michael

Poe's poetry doth touch, and his stories, very much. Not bad for a drunken fool who talked to crows.
