The Raven

The Raven by Edger Alan Poe. I really like that this poem has some rythm to it. ABCBBB It makes the poem more interesting. This poem seems as if someone is morning over the lose of a loved one. Poe uses many metaphors and the poem seems very sad and depressing. Im not a big fan of this poem becuase its so sad and depressing.

Death be Not Proud

John Donnes Death be Not Proud is a really good poem. I had a hard time reading this at first becuase of the older type language. But I found that the poem is about being proud of dieing. He makes death seem like its going to be pleasent like "sleep".
