    That line seemed too long for that stanza if you read it aloud , but the poem was absolutely amazing; I feel . The choice of words, the imagery . Just two words I have for you, sweets` :

    Ms. Corrine,
    This was a fantastic piece of work, specially now that it's penned in honor of Poe. 'Twas hauntingly gloomy in tone that I was rendered speechless. Reading this piece makes me understand Poe's feelings more.
    Thank you for sharing. =]

    Wow when I saw this under love poems I was a bit confused at first, because I wasn't really sure how you would be able to relate ghosts and love. However after reading your poem I now see how that is possible. I really liked this poem not just for the reason that you'd think. I like it for different reasons, the fact that is is about a ghost just makes it better in my opinion. I enjoyed the way that you wrote about the ghost and the persons feelings without saying that they were feelings of misery and hope. I also enjoyed how you picked out certain items in the household and chose to focus the poem around them. Thats a very interesting thing to do because it lets the reader really get into the frame of mind as the person in your poem. I think that the last line was one of my favorites because it shows how much that we can miss a person, but in turn it shows that even after death that person is never really gone, they are always with us even if we aren't able to see them anymore. For such a short poem this piece was filled with beauty, power, and a sence of longing that I havent felt in a long time. I relly enjoyed reading it, thanks for sharing this with me.
    The only critique that I have is I think that after each line there should be a comma to make the reader pause and really take in what the line had to say, it would give the poem more of a sence of mystery.

    5/5
