Ben Dover's Poet

I’ve chosen Alfred, Lord Tennyson as my poet to do research. Alfred, Lord Tennyson was poet laureate of the United Kingdom. A poet laureate is a poet assigned by the government to write poems for certain occasions. In Britain the poet laureate is the official poet of the King of Queen. He also wrote many poems, some that were received in high regard. He wrote such poems as The Charge of the Light Brigade, Tears, Idle Tears, Break, Break, Break, among others.
