An Enigma by Edgar Allan Poe
"Seldom we find," says Solomon Don Dunce,
"Half an idea in the profoundest Sonnet.
Through all the flimsy things we see at once
As easily as through a Naples bonnet -
Trash of all trash! - how can a lady don it?
Yet heavier far than your Petrarchan stuff-
Owl-Downy nonsense that the faintest puff
Twirls into trunk-paper the while you con it."
And, veritably, Sol is right enough.
The general tuckermanities are arrant
Bubbles - ephemeral and so transparent -
But this is, now, - you may depend upon it -
Stable, opaque, immortal - all by dint
Of the dear names that lie concealed within 't.
Congratulations to Deb for solving this one. Great job.

Poe did not have a "step-mother." He had a "foster" mother, Frances Allan. A step-mother would have been a woman married to Poe's natural father. His natural father left the family and never took on the responsibility of raising Poe.Poe did not have a step mother. He had a foster mother whose name was Frances Allan.

In Edgar Allan Poe's poem 'A Valentine', the hidden message is a playful and unconventional declaration of love. The speaker compares the recipient to an onion, revealing layers of emotion and complexity, and ultimately expressing a deep fondness for them despite their flaws. The poem conveys the idea that true love transcends superficial appearances and embraces imperfections.
This epitaph is written on the tombstone of Edgar Allan Poe, a famous American poet and author known for his macabre and Gothic works. The phrase "Quoth the Raven, 'Nevermore'" comes from his poem "The Raven," which explores themes of loss, sorrow, and the supernatural.
Today, January 19, 2010, the 'Poe Toaster' failed to appear at the grave site of Edgar Allan Poe for the first time since 1949. The mysterious 'Poe Toaster', whose identity supposedly is unknown, has faithfully appeared at the Edgar Allan Poe's grave site between midnight and 5:30 am to leave 3 roses and a half empty bottle of cognac. on his grave. Sadly, that tradition ended today without explanation. Perhaps it will be revived, perhaps it will occur nevermore.

The 3 original Ravens human mascots were Edgar (#101) Allan (#102) and Poe (#103), named in honor of poet Edgar Allan Poe, whose poem "The Raven" is whom the Ravens are named for. They worked the sidelines during home games up until the 2009 season.Beginning in 2009, Edgar and Allan were retired, and Poe remains as the sole human mascot.In Edgar and Allan's place, 2 new live Ravens, Rise and Conquer, were named as the 2 new Ravens mascots. Housed and kept at the Baltimore Zoo, Rise and Conquer spent several weeks in training to learn how to deal calmly with the loud noise and number of people at Ravens home games, which is normally over 70,000.Both Rise and Conquer are handled on the sidelines by zoo handlers during home games. They have quickly become fan favorites, though Poe still gets a lot of attention as well.
