William Wordsworth The Haiku Poet - Lonely As A Cloud Poem by john tiong chunghoo

the bliss of solitude
my heart with pleasure
dances with daffodils

lonely like a cloud
i float
o'er vales and hills

a crowd, a host of
golden daffodils fluttering
dancing in the breeze

the stars
on the milky way stretch
in a never-ending line

along the margin of a bay
ten thousand tossing their heads
in a sprightly dance

the waves beside them dance
outdoing the sparkling waves
in glee

in jocund company
I gaze -
and gaze

thinking little
of the wealth
of the show


on my couch
they flash upon
that inward eye

the bliss of solitude
my heart with pleasure
dances with daffodils
