Poem A Day - 7/14/08 - "Alone"

Today I decided to do another cover. Poe has always been one of my favorite poets so I figured I'd do a poem by him at some point. It probably won't be my last Poe poem either, so hopefully the viewers enjoy Poe because I think he's an incredible poet and all around writer.

As usual, comments, subscriptions, sharing with friends, and ratings are always encouraged and very welcome. I should also be back to actual poems tomorrow.

"Alone" ~Edgar Allan Poe

From childhood's hour I have not been
As others were---I have not seen
As others saw---I could not bring
My passions from a common spring.
From the same source I have not taken
My sorrow; I could not awaken
My heart to joy at the same tone;
And all I lov'd, I loved alone.
Then---in my childhood---in the dawn
Of a most stormy life---was drawn
From ev'ry depth of good and ill
The mystery which binds me still:
From the torrent, or the fountain,
From the red cliff of the mountain,
From the sun that 'round me roll'd
In its autumn tint of gold---
From the lightning in the sky
As it pass'd me flying by---
From the thunder and the storm,
And the cloud that took the form
(When the rest of Heaven was blue)
Of a demon in my view.

I did not create this poem and cannot grant access to any other users, but enjoy the entry.
