Wordsworth Inspired

"I wandered lonely as a cloud" These very lines created my sound Wove dreams of gold, spun silken thoughts Words resounded, thoughts surrounded revolt Twelve and undecided, these words honed my soul Try as I might, they created in my mind Words of truth, words with delight Serenely, caressingly, certainly contrite Truer words were told, yet undue thought was heeded Yet like music these flowed, cajoled, sublimely needed Aaah yes Wordsworth inspired and Shakespeare he aided These masters they guided, and deliriously I decided Poetry would reflect me, my very intimate soul It would mould, and tease, and thereby make me whole!!
