    This poem describes William Wordsworth's experience seeing a large number of daffodils by a lake.

    DAFFODILS

    This poem had been


    written by a romentic
    poet, William
    Wordsworth. He is also
    known as the poet of
    nature because of his
    great love for it. Most
    of his poems describe
    nature & its beauty. In
    this poem, he describes
    his experience of
    enjoyment along the
    large number of
    daffodils. As he says:
    "I wandered lonely as
    a cloud That floats on
    high o'er vales and
    hills, When all at once
    I saw acrowd, a host of
    golden daffodils;
    Beside the lake,
    beneath the trees,
    Fluttering & dancing
    in the breeze."
    The poet says that once
    he was wandering like a
    cloud over the valleys
    and hills. Suddenly, he
    saw a large number of
    daffodils were growing
    under a tree & near the
    bank of lake. The
    flowers were dancing
    and moving in the
    breeze. This sight
    delighted poet very
    much. He says that:
    "Continuous as the
    stars that shine &
    twinkle on the milky
    way, They stretched in
    a never ending line.
    Along the margin of
    bay: Ten Thousand I
    saw at a glance,
    Tossing their heads in
    sprightly dance."
    He describes that these
    daffodils were dancing
    continuously as the
    stars that shine on the
    milky way. The flowers
    were in a never ending
    lines and the poet says
    that I saw almost ten
    thousand flowers at
    once. They moving
    their heads in a happy
    dance. As the poet says
    that:
    "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."
    He describes that the
    waves of the lake were
    also moving & dancing
    happily but the dance of
    the daffodils were
    superior to that. The
    poet became very happy
    in such a beautiful and
    joyous company. The
    poet went on looking at
    them and did not think
    what wealth of joy of
    these daffodils had
    brought to him. He says
    that:
    "For oft when on my
    couch I lie. In vacant
    or in pensive mood,
    They flash upon my
    inward eye. WHich is
    bliss of solitude, and
    then my heart with
    pleasure fills, And
    dances with daffodils."
    The poet is very much
    impressed with the
    natural beauty of
    flowers. So, whenever
    the poet was alone or in
    a thinking mood, the
    same sight came to his
    mind and fills his heart
    with pleasure. He also
    says that this scene of
    flowers that he saw on
    the lake comes in front
    of his eyes and he also
    begins to dance with the
    flowers. This sight
    became permanent
    source of pleasure for
    the poet which is the
    bliss of his solitude.
