I managed to capture this #raven in the #tree on my daily walk today; just before the new #leaves will appear or #spring #bloom. He was sitting so content in the sun; it made me think of one of my favourite poems: The Raven by Edgar Allan Poe Below a glimpse 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.” Ah, distinctly I remember it was in the bleak December; And each separate dying ember wrought its ghost upon the floor. Eagerly I wished the morrow;—vainly I had sought to borrow From my books surcease of sorrow—sorrow for the lost Lenore— For the rare and radiant maiden whom the angels name Lenore— Nameless here for evermore. And the silken, sad, uncertain rustling of each purple curtain Thrilled me—filled me with fantastic terrors never felt before; So that now, to still the beating of my heart, I stood repeating “’Tis some visitor entreating entrance at my chamber door— Some late visitor entreating entrance at my chamber door;— This it is and nothing more.” Presently my soul grew stronger; hesitating then no longer, “Sir,” said I, “or Madam, truly your forgiveness I implore; But the fact is I was napping, and so gently you came rapping, And so faintly you came tapping, tapping at my chamber door, That I scarce was sure I heard you”—here I opened wide the door;— Darkness there and nothing more. Deep into that darkness peering, long I stood there wondering, fearing, Doubting, dreaming dreams no mortal ever dared to dream before; But the silence was unbroken, and the stillness gave no token, And the only word there spoken was the whispered word, “Lenore?” This I whispered, and an echo murmured back the word, “Lenore!”— Merely this ... #poetry #photography #teachersofinsta #englishteacherhumor #literature

Lately, l've been too busy, doing my best in being a social butterfly that I've been neglecting my studies... ☹ And what kind of teacher will I be, if I'm not an examplar student myself! So now the time has come for me to become a book 📖worm🐛 again. So if you don't see or hear from me the next couple of days; I'll be somewhere in a book, so don't worry too much. I'm still alive, 👻well just barely.😧 Busy stu-dying! 💀Take care and be safe xox 🤓 #studygram #studentlife #studyspo #studyblr #university #universitylife #books #bookstagram #englishteacherhumor #englishteacherproblems #englishteachers #studying #students
