Hi. When I was a child, I read a pome by Poe. It was 2 lines long. And I haven't been able to find it since. Does anybody know the name of the poem??? Help. Drew

This may seem like an obvious question, but do you remember how these two lines went?

Hello. I've been reading through my "Complete Tales & Poems" since I last responded to your question and I think I may have found what you're looking for. Poe never wrote a 2-line poem in its own right, though the tale "The Island of the Fay" contains the following:

So blended bank and shadow there That each seemed pendulous in air-

If this isn't the poem you were thinking of, please e-mail me and I'll se if I can help further.

Yours,

Joe

Go to the chronological life of Poe at the Poe site in baltimore. On the chronological list is the first poem Poe ever wrote -- it was a 2 lines poem called poetry. Maybe this is what you are looking for?
