Alfred Lord Tennyson oft wrote poems with epic length, but he was the best.5 Stars full Score for this Classic Poem Of The Day

In 1838 Tennyson was in Torquay, a place he called "the loveliest sea village in England". He apparently "had no money for touring, nor did he wish for change". He wrote at the time, "I require quiet and myself to myself, more than any man when I write."

He sang his song, and I replied with mine: I found it in a volume, all of songs, Knock’d down to me, when old Sir Robert’s pride, His books–the more the pity, so I said– Came to the hammer here in March–and this– I set the words, and added names I knew. o great poem great 10++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

He sang his song, and I replied with mine: I found it in a volume, all of songs, Knock’d down to me, very fine poem. tony

Beautiful poem on sea journey is hauntingly delineated by Alfred Lord Tennyson.

A joyful get together of friends after a sea journey is narrated in a beautiful way makes this poem enjoyable! Kudos to the great Poet Tennyson!

These poems have the depth and nothing happens in a moment, anon, as the poem says. Takes time to dive deep where the light is. .

The alliterative verse with great rhythm is the significant attribute of Tennyson’s poetry! The fathomless beauty of his poetry is unique! The things which I notice in the following lines of this great poem: In crescent, dimly rain’d about the leaf/Twilights of airy silver, till we reach’d/The limit of the hills; and as we sank/From rock to rock upon the glooming quay.

A wonderful poem by Alfred Lord Tennyson....

A lovely flow and rhythm to this poem
