Hello all!

I'm currently a uni student studying for her Bachelors, most likely to be seen haunting the libraries or jogging the streets without a care in the world! Prone to fits of whimsical thought as I am, it wasn't long before my old love of poetry roared back into existence after what one might describe as a veritable blight of mundanity in my life. ^_^

... Some nights, when all is still and thus perfect for a spot of Edgar Alan Poe; I place all the blame for this latest epiphany on a quote of his:

"That pleasure which is at once the most pure, the most elevating and the most intense, is derived, I maintain, from the contemplation of the beautiful."

To all those who've taken the time to read my stuff, you've my thanks. I do hope you enjoy :)
