A. 1) B Because the knight is searching for Eldorado (the city of gold), this would fulfill his dream and bring meaning to his life. He is not seeking to be created, beautiful, or dead, only to be fulfilled. 2) A He is a brave knight in sunshine and in shadows would signify that he is brave in good times and bad. The only word that signifies bad would be Adversity 3) A Because he has a shadow growing over his heart (in this stanza the lack of hope), he is going to die unfulfilled.

What do you think of this poem?
Q. Not my own, but Poe's. I couldn't post mine. :) I think it's my favorite by him. Gaily bedight, A gallant knight, In sunshine and in shadow, Had journeyed long, Singing a song, In search of Eldorado. But he grew old- This knight so bold- And o'er his heart a shadow Fell as he found No spot of ground That looked like Eldorado. And, as his strength Failed him at length, He met a pilgrim shadow- "Shadow," said he, "Where can it be- This land of Eldorado?" "Over the Mountains Of the Moon, Down the Valley of the Shadow, Ride, boldly ride," The shade replied- "If you seek for Eldorado!" What's your favorite Edgar Allan Poe poem or story?

Non adoption related art and how we see in in relation to adoption?
Q. Poe was brought up in another question and this got me thinking a bit. As a teen I was infatuated with Poe and until recently I had no clue he was an adoptee. There is one poem that has always stuck in my mind and been close to my heart, Eldorado. El Dorado is often described as an incredible, wealthy, mythical South American city. In fact the myth originated with El Dorado being a king who covered himself in gold dust then dove into a mountain lake. I always saw El Dorado as a person, long sought but always just out of reach, not unlike the family I longed for but had no way to find as a youth. As an adoptee it makes me wonder what Poe was thinking as he wrote it. Today it makes me wonder what pieces of art have helped others through… [cont.]

A. 1) I think the shadow's answer really means that El Dorado is everywhere because most people know of El Dorado as the lost city of gold so in my opinion the shadow is telling the knight that anywhere can be El Dorado if he makes it El Dorado...not sure if that makes sense it's kind of like anything can be good if you believe it is good 3) I think Poe's feelings about his poetry is that it is still finding its way around/ it's lost just like the knight is lost and is trying to find a way to El Dorado or maybe it could be that since the knight is probably on an endless journey to a mythic city Poe's poem could be an endless journey to nowhere
