Hi,
today’s the 200th birthday of Edgar Allan Poe. I love reading his morbid and
dark poems and prosa. The most known is of course “The Raven”,
Gustave Doré made beautiful pictures of the lines. So it’s time to honor Poe
with a MOC.
Here we go:
Open here I flung the shutter,when, with many a flirt and flutter,
In there stepped a stately Raven of the saintly days of yore.
Not the least obeisance made he; not a minute stopped or stayed he,
But, with mien of lord or lady, perched above my chamber door--
Perched upon a bust of Pallas just above my chamber door--
Perched, and sat, and nothing more.
Here’s a
more detailed foto of the raven.
Enjoy!
Best regards,
Barbara
