#summary • #ThatMorning • #TedHughesPoem • #summary • #EnglishLiteratureLessons • / learneng.arfeen • • That Morning • Ted Hughes • We came where the salmon were so many • So steady, so spaced, so far-aimed • On their inner map, England could add • Only the sooty twilight of South Yorkshire • Hung with the drumming drift of Lancasters • Till the world had seemed capsizing slowly. • Solemn to stand there in the pollen light • Waist-deep in wild salmon swaying massed • As from the hand of God. There the body • Separated, golden and imperishable, • From its doubting thought – a spirit-beacon • Lit by the power of the salmon • That came on, came on, and kept on coming • As if we flew slowly, their formations • Lifting us toward some dazzle of blessing • One wrong thought might darken. As if the fallen • World and salmon were over. As if these • Were the imperishable fish • That had let the world pass away – • There, in a mauve light of drifted lupins, • They hung in the cupped hands of mountains • Made of tingling atoms. It had happened. • Then for a sign that we were where we were • Two gold bears came down and swam like men • Beside us. And dived like children. • And stood in deep water as on a throne • Eating pierced salmon off their talons. • So we found the end of our journey. • So we stood, alive in the river of light, • Among the creatures of light, creatures of light.
