Cartoon Edgar Allen Poe-Raven Nevermore

Cartoon Edgar Allen Poe-Raven Nevermore

Happy Birthday, Edgar Allen Poe! Today’s cartoon is of the famous American Poet, most famous for his Poem “The Raven”. He’s been dead 160+ years, but a mysterious visitor to his grave annually placed 3 roses and a toast of Cognac on his gravestone From 1949 to 2009. Presumably, the mysterious visitor to Poe’s grave is now also dead. Thanks to Tanya for the tip!

Here’s an excerpt:

Once upon a midnight dreary, while I pondered, weak and weary,
Over many a quaint and curious volume of forgotten lore —
While I nodded, nearly napping, suddenly there came a tapping,
As of some one gently rapping, rapping at my chamber door.
“‘Tis some visiter,” I muttered, “tapping at my chamber door —
Only this and nothing more.”

Edgar Allan Poe (born Edgar Poe, January 19, 1809 – October 7, 1849)
