I Wandered Lonely As A Cloud
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 be but 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.
