Compare and contrast "i wandered lonely as a cloud" to walter de la mare's poem "the storm." how does each poet depict nature differently? how do the
themes and moods of the poems differ as a result of each poet's depiction?
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.
"the storm" by walter de la mare first there were two of us, then there were three of us, then there was one bird more, four of us--wild white sea-birds, treading the ocean floor; and the wind rose, and the sea rose, to the angry billows? roar-- with one of us--two of us--three of us--four of us sea-birds on the shore. soon there were five of us, soon there were nine of us, and lo! in a trice sixteen! and the yeasty surf curdled over the sands, the gaunt grey rocks between; and the tempest raved, and the lightning? s fire struck blue on the spindrift hoar-- and on four of us--ay, and on four times four of us sea-birds on the shore. and our sixteen waxed to thirty-two, and they to past three score-- a wild, white welter of winnowing wings, and ever more and more; and the winds lulled, and the sea went down, and the sun streamed out on high, gilding the pools and the spume and the spars ? neath the vast blue deeps of the sky; and the isles and the bright green headlands shone, as they? d never shone before, mountains and valleys of silver cloud, wherein to swing, sweep, soar-- a host of screeching, scolding, scrabbling sea-birds on the shore-- a snowy, silent, sun-washed drift of sea-birds on the shore.
