Where is Poe's Grave's Mystery Visitor??
Today is Edgar Allan Poe's birthday. "Darling Eddie," as his mother-in-law Maria Clemm referred to him, would now be 201. For 50 years or more, between midnight and 5:30 am, Eastern Standard Time, someone has left a red rose on Poe's grave in Baltimore, Maryland. Not this year! One wonders whether the mysterious one is now residing in his-or her-own grave.
Seems Jan. 2010, despite being a New Year AND a new decade, is marking the end of more than one era. Last Tuesday night, Jan. 11, Teddy Pendergrass passed away, my musical idol; today no mysterious visitor at Poe's grave after 50 years, and Eddie is my literary idol.
