""I Wandered Lonely as a Cloud" (known as "The Daffodils") is an 1804 poem by William Wordsworth. It was inspired by an April 15, 1802 event in which Wordsworth and his sister, Dorothy, came across a "long belt" of daffodils. Dorothy later wrote in reference to this walk: I never saw daffodils so beautiful they grew among the mossy stones about and about them, some rested their heads upon these stones as on a pillow for weariness and the rest tossed and reeled and danced and seemed as if they verily laughed with the wind that blew upon them over the lake, they looked so gay ever dancing ever changing. (Dorothy Wordsworth, The Grasmere Journal) It was first published in 1807, and a revised version was released in 1815. The poem is written in iambic tetrameter. I wandered lonely as a cloud That floats on high o'er vales and hills, When all at once I saw a crowd, A host of golden daffodils; Beside the lake, beneath the trees, Fluttering and dancing in the breeze. Continuous as the stars that shine and twinkle on the Milky Way, They stretched in never-ending line along the margin of a bay: Ten thousand saw I at a glance, tossing their heads in sprightly dance. The waves beside them danced; but they Out-did the sparkling waves in glee: A poet could not but be gay, in such a jocund company: I gazed - and gazed - but little thought what wealth the show to me had brought: For oft, when on my couch I lie In vacant or in pensive mood, They flash upon that inward eye Which is the bliss of solitude; And then my heart with pleasure fills, And dances with the daffodils. Wordsworth struggled with the last verse and the contribution made by his sister Dorothy provided the first four lines of the last stanza. Wordsworth acknowledges these four lines as the best of the entire work." oh thats right, show me up, just because I only know the first verse...I think I may cry now...then you will feel bad and its all your own doing. | |||

"Fuckin' hate poetry I do. " That don't even rhyme. If you don't like it why post on this thread of all threads. That's a bit like looking for someone to fuck who you know doesn't turn you on. Pointless and futile. | |||
