Alfred Lord Tennyson's The Charge Of The Light Brigade

The first poem I am going to write about is the Charge of the Light Brigade by Alfred lord Tennyson. Alfred was born on the 6th of August 1809 in Lincolnshire England. Alfred died on the 6th of October 1892.
The poem is talking about war that he read in the newspaper and he wrote a poem about them. The battle took place in the 1854. Alfred was not a soldier in the war he think war is a good thing. In the first verse it talks about the six hundred soldiers going to war in the valley of death. He talks about the soldier being ambushed in the valley by the Russian army. The commander told the soldiers to go to the valley. The soldiers travel about six or seven miles in the valley “half a league, half a league, half a league

"Reel'd shalter'd and shunderd, This verbs at the end of the cerse tell us that the battle went badly for the Light Brigade and they are forced to retread. Alfred was talking about “all the world was wondered” as the Light Brigade was trying to fight. At the end it tells that the Light Brigade was retiring from the battle “reeled from the sabre stroke”. The soldiers was tired after the battle “shattered and shunder’d”. The last two lines is saying that the light brigade is going back but not the six hundred that had started in the battle “Then they rode back but not, Not the six hundred” In verse five it describing the battle that the Light Brigade fought in the valley of death. Alfred is saying what was the battle like to fight in. “While horses and hero fell” he is telling that the soldiers in the Light Brigade were being killed while they were fighting. In the last lines it tells “All that was left of them, Left of the six
