At waters edge in caverns deep,
He wandered in repose.
Seeking of his one true love,
Through moon’s latent glows.
Leaving wake upon wake,
Over sea’s far and wide.
When a mermaid swept him
Off on the ebb of a tide.
In honour of Edgar Allan Poe born 19th January 1809

Very evocative of Poe but it’s your own voice. Nice work Ellen. I really enjoyed ready it and the illustration was a good choice.
