Edgar Allan Poe. Poe is one of the greatest poets of all time. I love all of his poems dearly, and I also like his short stories. Poe has a beautiful way of describing things, with the most vivid and imaginative vocabulary (for help with vocabulary click here ). It is true that he died long ago, but his poems still having meaning even today.

IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT!!!!

I don't want to offend anyone or deter anyone from coming to my site, but----please, please, please, I'm begging you----DO NOT email me very complex questions (example: Could you give me an analysis of the poem ----?

Poems

Due to complaints about the backgrounds, I have created new eye-friendly versions which are marked by EF. By clicking the EF that's next to the poem you want to read, you can go to a page that has large black text on a white background. This is not only for people who have trouble seeing; it's also for people who have been surfing the net for a while and their eyes just a need a break. So enjoy! More are on the way.

Poems of the Youth. Here is Poe's note about these, "Private reasons--some of which have reference to the sin of plagiarism, and others to date of Tennyson's first poems--have induced me, after some hesitation to republish these, the crude compositions of my earliest boyhood. They are printed verbatim, without alteration from the original edition, the date of which is too remote to be judiciously acknowledged."

I apologize that this is taking so long, but I hand type all of these stories and poems (and I have been extremely busy lately). However, I now have help. Special thanks go to Annie for "The Murders of the Rue Morgue"; DoubleJ04 for "A Descent into the Maelstrom" and the "The Gold-Bug"; Dave for "The Angel of the Odd"; and finally Zsuzsanna for "Never Bet the Devil Your Head." "The Man of the Crowd" was typed up by J. Goodwin, and "Hop-Frog" was typed by Bob Hope. Thanks to you all!
