I'm a bookworm, always have been and I've been reading Poe since I was at school. The Raven was the first poem by Poe I read and I've always loved it. The title of this work comes from the first line of the poem. "Once upon a midnight dreary, while I pondered, weak and weary, Over many a quaint and curious volume of forgotten lore— While I nodded, nearly napping, suddenly there came a tapping, As of some one gently rapping, rapping at my chamber door. “’Tis some visitor,” I muttered, “tapping at my chamber door— Only this and nothing more.”"
