Daffodils By Willam Wordsworth

The poet writes that he was "wandering lonely as a cloud" in the lake district when all of the sudden he came upon a "host of golden daffodils". he declares them to be a beautiful golden colour, "beside the lake beneath the trees" and full of energy.

As far as the poet is concerned they are "continous as the stars that shine and twinkle on the milky way"
The poet realises that he could not but find happiness at this sight as they "out did the sparkling waves in glee"

In the final verse the poet comments on the power of memory. He tells us that many times has he been on his couch in a reflective mood and during these moments the daffodils "flash upon the inward eye which is the bliss of solitude"

So in conclusion, the poet tells us that there are two types of happiness- the moment of the happiness and the memory of that moment
