What is the shortest poem Edgar Allan Poe has written?

Answer 1

To Helen is the shortest poem... it's 15 lines long:

To Helen

by Edgar Allan Poe

Helen, thy beauty is to me

Like those Nicean barks of yore,

That gently, o'er a perfum'd sea,

The weary way-worn wanderer bore

To his own native shore.

On desperate seas long wont to roam,

Thy hyacinth hair, thy classic face,

Thy Naiad airs have brought me home

To the beauty of fair Greece,

And the grandeur of old Rome.

Lo! in that little window-niche

How statue-like I see thee stand!

The folded scroll within thy hand -

A Psyche from the regions which

Are Holy land!

~so pretty much, Poe has fallen in love with Helen and thinks she is the world.~

1. Choose an epic hero. He can either choose himself, a family member, or a god or goddess from ancient history.
2. His epic hero must be charged with a task. He can guard something, learn something, or search for something as he endures his epic journey, but there should be some purpose to his adventure.
3. Decide who your hero’s helpers will be. They are usually mythical creatures, with special powers, but the decision is up to him. He should his use his imagination to come up with a unique plot and characters.
4. Ask him to outline his epic poem according to the three phases: exile, journey, and return home. Brainstorm ideas about why your epic hero needs to leave home, what he is going to encounter along the journey, and how he will successfully complete the quest.
5. Now it's time for him to begin writing his epic! The structure, length, and style are entirely up to him.
6. When he's all done, invite him to decorate the borders of the epic poem with drawings of the characters or setting.

Tips for Parents: Writing an epic story or poem can be especially helpful for kids who might be experiencing a hard time or facing a move to a new city or state. You can encourage your child to make the poem an allegory for adolescence or middle school. Children experiencing challenges may find hope or an optimistic outlook in creating a positive resolution to the epic hero’s story.
