This poem was written by Edgar Allen Poe and is a story over a man grieving the loss of his love when a raven appears saying over and over"nevermore". One important part that makes the story is when the man asks the raven a question he knows the answer to (because the raven always says "never,more"). This sadness is what the man likes and asks this because of that.
-The raven is a bird of prophecy
-They have long been associated with mystery, evil omens, and death.
-End rhyme: similar or identical sounds at the ends of lines
-Internal rhymes: rhymes within a line
-Rhyme scheme: the basic pattern of the end rhymes (A,B,C,B,B...)
