Written for: Poetic Bloomings2 - Narrative Narrative poetry is poetry that tells a story. In its broadest sense, it includes epic poetry; some would reserve the name narrative poetry for works on a smaller scale and generally with more direct appeal to human interest than the epic. An example of a narrative poem would be: The Raven by Edgar Allan Poe In boyhood a love of football occupied him after school work was done. Rangy, and tall, he metamorphosed to teenage cool. He turned to experimenting, beginning what would be a lifelong love of smoking cigarettes, occasionally weed. His mother and father, estranged from early years, left him with mom, who turned boy against dad with rage. In later life, boy felt time had come to seek out dad. He'd grown to a man. Father and son became a close team. Son's second marriage produced Stan, a son, and father vowed never to leave. Moving up in the business world he used his technical skills. Respect was easily earned as he possessed wit and good will. He should have had a good, long life but it was taken–ripped away when his tower fell under strife on a sunny September day. https://poeticbloomings2.wordpress.com/
