Sinopse

Ainda não disponível em português — exibindo a versão em inglês.

"I Wandered Lonely as a Cloud" (also sometimes called "Daffodils") is a lyric poem by William Wordsworth. It is one of his most popular, and was inspired by an encounter on 15 April 1802 during a walk with his younger sister Dorothy, when they saw a "long belt" of daffodils on the shore of Ullswater in the English Lake District. Written in 1804, this 24-line lyric was first published in 1807 in Poems, in Two Volumes, and revised in 1815. In a poll conducted in 1995 by the BBC Radio 4 Bookworm programme to determine the UK's favourite poems, I Wandered Lonely as a Cloud came fifth. Often anthologised, it is now seen as a classic of English Romantic poetry, although Poems, in Two Volumes was poorly reviewed by Wordsworth's contemporaries.
