Welcome to the Poetry Cove





This is a little hideaway where one can find the poetry
of well known poets ...
like the poetry of, the presently featured, William Wordsworth ...
and will soon feature some unpublished works by aspiring poets ...






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 the 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 them my heart with pleasure fills,
And dances with the daffodils.

W. WORDSWORTH (1770 - 1850)
