The Eagle

This occasion I want to share a poem.  I get it in my Introduction to Literature class last Thursday.

 The Eagle
by Alfred Lord Tennyson

He claps the crag with crooked hands;
Close to the sun in lonely lands,
Ring'd with the azure world, he stands.

The wrinkled sea beneath him crawls;
He watches from his mountain walls,
And like a thunderbolt he falls.
