The Charge of the Light Brigade by Alfred, Lord Tennyson (subtitled excerpt - PART 6)
FULL POEM VIDEO ▶️ https://youtu.be/Dsj0XvhyM6w 👈
"The Charge of the Light Brigade" recounts a disastrous military operation that occurred during the war between Britain and Russia in Crimea, specifically at the Battle of Balaclava on October 25, 1854. The Light Brigade, a British cavalry unit, was instructed to charge the enemy's artillery positions. Although the order was a mistake and the charge was destined to fail, the soldiers courageously engaged in the battle and many lost their lives. Tennyson's poem has since become a timeless portrayal of war's courage, sacrifice, and pointlessness.

While alluring and mysterious figures, sirens are also plagued by melancholy. The string of pearls flowing out of the shell allegedly are formed by the tears of dead sailors.

The Art of Imitation
If only every word I chose was as hefty and vivid
as a line from Tennyson, then I could rule the world,
scale towering peaks, sail into some uncertain future,
but until then I must settle for watered-down Collins
and resort to simple observations about my writing
desk, what the flowers are doing outside my window,
and how they are not really flowers but my thoughts
fluttering away on a breeze like so many syllables of
laughter from children who age quicker than fashion.

🐚 🐚🐚🐚 🌊 It is said that the inspiration for this painting is, in part, attributed to Alfred Lord Tennyson’s “The Mermaid”, written in 1893.
“Who would be
A mermaid fair,
Singing alone,
Combing her hair
Under the sea,
In a golden curl
With a comb of pearl,
On a throne?”
Alfred Lord Tennyson (1893) “The Mermaid”
Painting: John William Waterhouse. A Mermaid (1900). Oil on canvas, 96.5 x 66.6 cm (37.9 x 26.2 in). Royal Academy of Arts, London.

Isn’t She Lovely? On either side the river lie. Long fields of barley and of rye. The Lady of Shallot, a recent purchase at my local United Church Sale. I saw her on the first day and thought the painting too big so I decided not to buy her. Then, the following day I returned hoping that maybe she still would be there but remembering her placed on the inside of the church pews she was no longer there and thought her gone only to look over at the church alter and there she was. 🍀lucky☘️ @Ghostales1957 #ladyofshalott #alfredlordtennyson #poetry #poem #preraphaelite #painters #1832 #donnadiscalotta #elaineofastalot #johnwilliamwaterhouse #english #romantic #painting #witchesofinstagram #art #beautiful #beautifulwomen #lilyofthevalley #found #church #literature #england #medieval #story #tale #camelot #colorfulweb #mirror #world #mysterious (at Ottawa, Ontario) https://www.instagram.com/p/BySYh6PH5wZ/?igshid=r0uzb5fnpomn

#Repost @_shada_m ・・・ Below the thunders of the upper deep, Far far beneath in the absymal sea, His ancient, dreamless, uninvaded sleep The Kraken sleepeth:faintest sunlight flee About his shadowy sides ;above him swell Huge sponges of millennial growth & height ; And far away into the sicky light, From many a wondrous grot & secret cell Unnumbered and enormous polypi Winnow with giant arms the slumbering green. There hath he lain for ages, and will lie Battening upon huge sea worms in his sleep, Until the later fire shall heat the deep ; Then once by man & angels to be seen, In roarin he shall rise & on the surface die. _The Kraken by Alfred Lord Tennyson_ . .
