I Wandered Lonely as a Cloud
is a poem about nature. Wordsworth uses his
poetic language to bring us into a beautiful world where there are full of fragrant
daffodils, verdant trees and gentle breeze. When we read this poem, we share the
melancholy as he “wandered as a cloud” and enjoy the delight the moment his
heart “with pleasure fills”. Besides, Wordsworth uses various techniques to
describe the beautiful scenery. We can see the harmony between human and
nature from the whole poem.
Firstly, the plot of this poem is very simple. The speaker is wandering as if he is
a cloud, seeing a field of daffodils. His emotion has changed with the view of
wonderful landscape. And the daffodils have a deep influence on his life.
Whenever he feels dull, depressed or lonely, he thinks about the daffodils and
cheers himself up. For him, daffodil is a symbol of nature, which he is fond of.
Actually, he is not so stuck by the time he saw them. Only when he himself was
alone, in other words, much later after the time he came across them, does he
remember them and feel relief and comfort.
Secondly, Wordsworth adopts many rhetoric devices in this poem. For
instance, the poem makes a comparison between “I wandered lonely” and “a
cloud” with the aid of simile. This conveys a feeling of lonely to us all. Although
clouds are free enough and sometimes float with breeze, they are always lonely.
Just like the stars twinkling on the Milky Way, which we are much familiar with. We
all have the experience when staring at the starry sky by our own far away from
home, we miss our family and friends. Time seems to stay still or even prolong.
Without their accompany, we feel so lonely. Yet, as the speaker continues his stroll,
he is surprised to find everything has changed. Though it seems that the speaker is
lonely like clouds, in fact, he is no longer alone with the company of daffodils. They
accompany each other in harmony---the speaker walks, the daffodils dance. The
shift of the speaker’s mood from loneliness to happiness manifests the theme of
this poem, which is nature, can have a great influence upon human beings. Also,
the clever use of personification endows the natural things with human being’s
character. Through the vivid description of daffodils, we can realize the deep love
of the poet towards nature.
What’s more, the last stanza reveals that it is a memory of the speaker
through the change from past tense to present tense. It is the unforgettable
memory of daffodils that affect him a lot. Nevertheless long time has passed by;
he will always be cheered up by the vigor of daffodils, which saves him from bad
emotion. And the whole poem is filled with emotionally strong words like “golden”
“dancing” and “bliss”. By the time we read this poem, a picturesque scenery
will came into our view. It is so energetic and lovely that our heart will beat as the
daffodils dance. Thus we will forget all the distress and turn to be happy.
All in all, this poem shows us beautiful scenery and passes on a joyful feeling
to us, which enable us to be free from our daily trifles and enjoy the legacy of
nature. It teaches us to keep our eyes open on those things around us. Daffodils
represent all wonderful matters that make our life colorful and full of excitement.
Also, we need to respect and be concerned with nature as it is our friend. Human
beings can live harmony with nature.
