DAFFODILS BY William Wordsworth
I wander’d 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 strech’d in never-ending line
Along the margin of a bay:
Then thousand saw I at a glance,
Tossing their heads in sprightly dance.
The
waves beside then 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
