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!!
