I Wandered Lonely as a Cloud, first stanza

Author: William Wordsworth Year: 1807 Length: 205 characters Difficulty: easy Public domain

Length
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.
