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.



NaCl(I've always loved this poem, and this hillside full of daffodils, they so obviously go together.

mel---you are quite welcome
Rosemmary---Well the NYBG isn't all that far from Philly, couple of hours is all. Come on up and I'll give you a tour. The daffs are pretty much done but we've got woods full of azelias, tree peonies, then iris, day lilies, lilacs, roses etc etc.
