Winless For 30 Days
Write a short story by using the information in the poem from the following poem by Tennyson titled "The Eagle"
He clasps the crag with crooked hands;
Close to the sun in lonely lands,
Ringed with the azure world, he stands.
The wrinkled sea beneath him crawls;
He watches from his mountain walls,
And like a thunderbolt he falls.
