Daffodils, by Wordsworth


Reading Wordworth’s poem I felt that I was gazing those daffodils and they were dancing around me and little by little I was part of them- part of nature. Absolutely nature is perfect, gorgeous and infinite and all of us are proud of its beauty. I think he admired nature and beauty and for that he took daffodils as a representation of nature magnificence.

This poem is like a photo .When we take a photo we capture an instant of our lives and we can be part of it every time we look at it. Clearly this poem represents an instant that Wordsworth lived and experienced and then he recalled and wrote about it.


The following stanza: A poet could not but be gay, In such a jocund company" deals with the idea that when we contemplate nature, we are not alone, it illuminates our lives and we can be full of pleasure.
