The Eagle


He clasps 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. 

                     By Alfred Lord Tennyson


Gaby's opinion:
The poet feels alone and for this reason he expresses the loneliness in this poem and he compares with the lone eagle .
