Description
I do not think there is anyway to soft-pedal Spring. Is there any person on earth who does not have joy in their heart when seeing daffodils and tulips start to bloom? They are simple. They are quiet. They are reliable. We know they are coming, and yet, the sight of them is a reason to celebrate every single year! New birth, new beginnings, the promise that better things, better days are coming; all held in these beautiful flowers; gift of the earth to weary people!
I Wandered Lonely as a Cloud
BY WILLIAM WORDSWORTH
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 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.
