The Romanticism in Wordsworth Romantic poetry has very distinct details which set it apart from previous poetry. William Wordsworth’s poem‚ "I Wandered Lonely As A Cloud‚" is full of the Romantic characteristics which were so different during that time. The poem begins with the speaker "floating" along‚ as though he or she were a cloud‚ when he or she spots a "crowd/ ‚ of golden daffodils" (Wordsworth‚ 3‚4). The speaker goes on to describe the daffodils and the lake that is beside them

The Red Wheelbarrow was an interesting poem‚ one because it’s short and was able to keep my attention for the 4 lines of text‚ two because it seemed to combine the two popular prose styles of romanticism and realism.

William Cowper’s poem “Slavery” has lots of descriptive thoughts and opinions concerning “human nature’s broadest‚ foulest blot” (Cowper). By using diction Cowper is able to expose the obscenities and barbarity of slavery. The use of diction and tone throughout the poem helps Cowper persuade the reader that slavery is wrong and inhumane.

Done By: http://www.livetvee4u.blogspot.com/ This poem is all about the poets epiphany-like realisation about London’s beauty while crossing Westminster bridge.
