Today, I was learning about some Romantic poets that had a bit of their life in Cambridge. We read some poems written by Coleridge, Byron and Wordsworth.
My favourite poem was Daffodils, by William Wordsworth. I liked how it started off quite gently and then it suddenly had a big difference with the sound as he sees the daffodils. He suddenly is feeling even happier than he was.
I also like it because it was like a dream or even a day filled with wonder. My favourite part is the last bit when he says:
For oft when on my couch I lie,
in vacant or in pensive mood,
They flash upon the inward eye
Which is the bliss of solitude;
And then my heart with pleasure fills
and dances with daffodils.
It's about when he's remembering the daffodils and it makes him feel really happy.
Glad you like Wordsworth's poetry. I bet the daffodils are dancing right now in Cambridge. Love Grandad
