I was very good, my only problem was how you used words like ne'er and lass. Of course there's nothing wrong with those words, I just have an irrational prejudice against shakespearian words. Either way, it was a good piece

Well done! You almost get it right, but the rhythm doesn't quite ring true. But an excellent job just the same. The rhyme is quite good and the development is strong and sure through the progress of the poem.

A well crafted and enjoyable poem, loved it.

I love it! But I kept waiting for Hedwig to say "never more" lol. Anywho, this poem brightened my day! You are awesome!

I re-read it! Such a fantastic job! It must've taken you ages to write! Finding the correct words! Genius!

" At last year's end she did declare her pairing with another. Blast!"

A fitting rhyme, and a perfect sentiment.  Bravo!

How cute! I enjoyed the "Raven"ish rhyme scheme. It must have taken a bit of effort to fully pull that off. I love the twist on it with the owl and all. It is really giving me an urge to read some Poe.  Well done.

Brilliant shippiness and brilliant parody of the Raven.  Edgar Allan would be pleased too.

I love this version of "The Raven"  You've done an admirable job of staying true to the original meter and creating a mood of tension.  I'd love to see what Ginny's Poe-like reaction to finding Hedwig at her window would be.

My favorite line in this poem is  "At last year's end she did declare her pairing with another. Blast!" and found myself chuckling merrily at this sentiment.  Great fun, that!

Please post again soon.   A.
