My blog on The Poem "Deffodils' By William Wordsworth

'Daffodils' by William Wordsworth

           'Daffodils' is the master piece by the romantic poet William Wordsworth. He is also considered  as the major natural poet. Who brings revolution in to the field of English poetry. Publication of 'Lyrical Ballad'(1798) is landmark in the history of English poetry.

           The present poem deals with the theme of nature. Wordsworth shows his motherly affection towards nature. William Wordsworth establish the relation between nature and human. This poem has three different levels, that is phonological level, structural level and semantic level.

            In the beginning of the poetry the poet is in pensive mood and wanders lonely as  a mids of mountain. Poet compares himself with cloud in the sense that they both have no direction and no aim, all of a sudden, the poet happens to see host of golden daffodils. Which dance with breeze situated and beside the beneath the tree. Here, the poet gives complete picture of daffodils and their position. 

               

                        "....I wandered lonely as a cloud, 

                         that floats on high o'er vales and hills."

             In the second stanza, the poet goes on to accessed his limit and stretches it to the level of exaggeration. The poet  compares daffodils with shining star- star's shin in the sky. Similarly daffodils shine on the earth in a Jovian mood. The poet claims that he sees Ten thousand  daffodils at a glans. The poet vision or eye fall shots to see the ending line of daffodils to narrate the beauty of daffodils. The poet says that the crowd of daffodils dance by tossing their heads.

                   "....Ten thousand saw i at a glance,

                    tossing their heads in sprightly dance."

              In the third stanza, the poet describe the location of daffodils exactly beside the crowd of daffodils, that is a running flow of river. Intention of the poet to compare river and daffodils. Daffodils is to compare weaves of the river with weaving of the daffodils. This creats rhyming effect the mesmerising effect of the scene has megical effect on the poet. Hence, the poet is nothing but gay. The poet calls such a company as jocund company. In emmersed condition, the poet gazed....and gazed....the beauty of nature. the poet considered this as true wealth.

              
                     ".....A poet could not be gay,
                       in such a jacund company:
                       I gazed....and gazed...but little thought".


             The final stanza takes turn, it is only in this stanza that readers comes to know that poet talks about his past experience. This poetry is the fruit of poet's imagination and experience. The poet recallects such Zocand experience when he is in vacent or pensive mood. The poet says that such a sweet memories are bliss of solitude. Such a memories flash upon inward eye. When the poet is alon and their remains non but the poet and sweet memories. This fills the poet heart with pleasure and starts dancing with the deffodils.

                   
                         "....And they my heart with pleasure fills,
                           and dances with the daffodils". 

              
                 In short, the poet nurrats his wonderful experience being with deffodils, it also takes in to the account the effect of nature on human being. Thus, the poem establishes the relationship between human and nature.
