Read the excerpt from "To One in Paradise," by Edgar Allan Poe. Thou wast all that to me, love, For which my soul did pine- A green isle in the sea, love, A fountain and a shrine, All wreathed with fairy fruits and flowers, And all the flowers were mine. How are the ideas in the excerpt similar to Poe's ideas in the first stanza of "Annabel Lee"?

Answer:

As in the poem "Annabel Lee", the excerpt from "To One in Paradise," portrays an impossible love, a love for a woman who is no longer alive.

Explanation:

Edgar Alan Poe was a poet who liked to express himself in poems that worshiped the dead loved woman. In both "Annabel Lee" and "To One in Paradise," we can see Poe as a speaker who was extremely in love with his beloved who was taken away from her by death. This leaves the speaker of the poem devastated, sad, melancholy, nostalgic and yet passionate.
