PROPOSAL:

This is the first part of the poem by Edgar Allan Poe, the Raven.
Could you invent the rest of the story???
Once upon a midnight dreary, while I pondered, weak and weary,
Over many a quaint and curious volume of forgotten lore,
While I nodded, nearly napping, suddenly there came a tapping,
As of some one gently rapping, rapping at my chamber door. *
"'Tis some visitor," I muttered, "tapping at my chamber door -
Only this, and nothing more."
