POEM 
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; Fluttering and dancing in the breeze. 
Continuous as the stars that shine And twinkle on the milky way, Along the margin of a bay: Tossing their heads in sprightly dance. 
The waves beside them dances; 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.
