His poem “I Wandered Lonely as a Cloud” tells the story about when he took a stroll by himself and found a field of daffodils. “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.” Wordsworth is describing how he first found the daffodils, which are beside the lake. He took his time to realize their movements in the breeze. “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.” In the last stanza of his poem, Wordsworth describes how he feels after coming in contact with the daffodils. He states that “his heart fills with pleasure and dances with the daffodils.”
Overall, Muir and Wordsworth view nature very similarly, except both of the two men took different paths to view it.
