The Raven

Once upon a midnight dreary,

While I pondered weak and weary,

Of many quaint and curious

Volume of forgotten lore-

While I nodded, nearly napping,

Suddenly there came a tapping,

As of someone gently rapping,

Rapping at my chamber door

"'Tis some visitor," I muttered

"Tapping at my chamber door-

Only this and nothing more."

- Edgar Allen Poe
