Free Downloadable "I Wandered Lonely As A Cloud" Daffodil A4 Poster

You might remember this whimsical poem about nature from your school days. Inspired by an afternoon walk in spring William Wordsworth sat and wrote a poem all about the field of daffodils he was in awe of.

Written in 1807, “I Wandered Lonely As A Cloud” also known as "Daffodils" is one of the most famous poems written in the English language. It is a wonderful poem about Wordsworth recollecting the feeling and emotions he felt while experiencing the glorious daffodils. 

Over two hundred years on the poem still lives on, so we thought it was appropriate to decorate a poster with the new English Fields Daffodil Collection, download this A4 poster completely free, just click below!

 “I Wandered Lonely As A Cloud” by William Wordsworth. 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
