Light from the setting sun is seen through the silhouetted branches of a tree. I took this with my mobile phone last week.

"We are not now that strength which in old days
Moved earth and heaven; that which we are, we are;
One equal temper of heroic hearts,
Made weak by time and fate, but strong in will
To strive, to seek, to find, and not to yield."
~ Excerpt from #Tennyson 's 'Ulysses.'
#RESIST
#ABOLISHICE
Image of a textured light-gray page with black serif text. Title: “Ulysses.” Byline: “BY ALFRED, LORD TENNYSON.” An ellipsis appears below. Excerpt reads: “We are not now that strength which in old days / Moved earth and heaven, that which we are, we are; / One equal temper of heroic hearts, / Made weak by time and fate, but strong in will / To strive, to seek, to find, and not to yield.”
Some days call for an old vow in plain language.
(From Ulysses — Alfred, Lord Tennyson)

Uplands
Only reapers
Hear a song
Winding clearly
By the margin,
By the moon—
On either side,
Shadows of the world
Meet the sky.
A space echoes airy
Listening, whispers—
Dusk.

In Dark House, Tennyson captures the unbearable moment when grief meets place — when a familiar doorway becomes a monument to absence, and the world resumes without the one who mattered most.
#Poetry #Tennyson #OriginalPoems
In my head (that vast cavern of doubts and regrets), I convince myself that I am rockstar famous for my #poetry. People want me to recite my #verse, and my collected works are scanned by schoolchildren.
Did I mention that it all happens in my head?

Ring out, wild bells
Alfred L. Tennyson
Ring out, wild bells, to the wild sky,
The flying cloud, the frosty light:
The year is dying in the night;
Ring out, wild bells, and let him die.

Time to share Alfred, Lord Tennyson's poem again. Not that I think grief can be rung out, though.

“Flower in the crannied wall,
I pluck you out of the crannies,
I hold you here, root and all, in my hand,
Little flower—but if I could understand
What you are, root and all, and all in all,
I should know what God and man is.”
Tennyson (1850)
