A Man Named Poe

Once was a man named Poe,
A dark and dreary fellow don’t you know?
Dark shadows of deadly fright,
Evermore thru the dark black night.

Once was a woman named Annabel Lee,
Who was killed and chilled down by the sea,
That broke the heart of the man named Poe,
Who never recovered don’t you know?

Congratulations on your win with this delightful poem... informative and sad at same time. I like the ..."don't you know" refrain too.
