DAFFODILS – a poem by William Wordsworth

I wandered lonely as a cloud
That floats on excessive o’er vales and hills,
When abruptly I noticed a crowd,
A number, of golden daffodils;
Beside the lake, beneath the timber,
Fluttering and dancing within the breeze.

Steady as the celebs that shine
And twinkle on the milky manner,
They stretched in endless line
Alongside the margin of a bay:
Ten thousand noticed I at a look,
Tossing their heads in sprightly dance.

The waves beside them danced, however they
Out-did the glowing leaves in glee;
A poet couldn’t be however homosexual,
In such a jocund firm!
I gazed—and gazed—however little thought
What wealth the present to me had introduced:

For oft, when on my sofa I lie
In vacant or in pensive temper,
They flash upon that inward eye
Which is the bliss of solitude;
After which my coronary heart with pleasure fills,
And dances with the daffodils.
