Oh my! Enigma!

Poe takes a person in. I just walked in and to see this, I must share that as I am looking direct out my window at several big fat ravens and in my mind I`m hearing rapping tapping! This makes it very hard to come into Enigma when I am hearing cadence to the Raven! One has to really ponder Poe`s writings. What a brilliant writer he was. I wonder what he might have done in later years with this tremendous gift. I am now thinking of The Bells. I remember this one from years ago, taking me on a ride into sound. If any writing can do this The Bells does it.
I have been writing about sound and no sound for two weeks, the contrast of sound. Thank you for posting this. Tonight I will read again, The Bells.
He is brilliant.

Wonderful graphic for this too. Very fitting.

Care to comment on this poem Enigma? I am curious about it, how you came upon it today.

I need to become a figment and get a bite to eat. I have Ludwig kitty too. ;)

Poe is one of my very favorite poets. I was looking for a poem to post to add to the new thread. I saw many poems by classic poets, but this one "took" me in so to speak.

I then discovered I needed a graphic for it. I was fortunate enough to have this one in my closet.

On another note, I have been searching for the song Deep Purple sung by Jackie Wilson for weeks now. I have never heard any one sing that song as Jackie Wilson does. Just moves me to the core.

Well can't find the song by the Jackie.
Oh MM, I heard Vincent Price read the Raven and The Bells at a poetry convention years ago in Florida.
