Eagle

Eagle

by Alfred, Lord Tennyson

Alfred, Lord Tennyson's 'The Eagle' is a short but powerful poem that vividly depicts the majestic and solitary nature of an eagle perched on a mountain cliff. Through vivid imagery and evocative language, Tennyson captures the bird's powerful presence, its commanding view of the world below, and the sense of awe and wonder it inspires. The poem's themes explore themes of nature, power, isolation, and the human condition, making it a timeless and compelling piece of literature.
