The Craven Raven

Pop64

To speak the words of famous lore

He backs away forevermore

For he’s afraid to quote the words

He dares not say them, “Never more”

 

 

So timid, he, he trembles true

Though black as night, his heart is blue

He dare not draw attentions light

To hide in shade, he means to do

    Very nice! The Raven By Edgar Poe! 😁The RAVEN is my spirit animal, so I'm very familiar! But she's brave and bold! Lol

    Love your take on the "Raven", a sweet read!

    A lovely two stanzas here Pop64, brilliantly written.

    I really like how the comic tones stated in your lines, suggest that a "mysterious strong swagger" from the raven, could actually be a decided "lonesome nervous freeze."

    Bravo, and I hope that all is well.
