Premium Member I Wandered Lonely As a Boat
"I wandered lonely as a cloud."  William Wordsworth


I wandered lonely as a boat   
a shallow dingy left behind,  
alone in marsh of reeds remote  
my paint now faint so unrefined, 
my only hope the next high tide  
on brackish...

Premium Member I Wandered Lonely As a Leaf That Falls
Inspired by "I Wandered Lonely as a Cloud," by William Wordsworth

I wandered lonely as a leaf that falls,
unmourned, to the distant ground
I paused when I heard a far bird's calls
Magic I'd missed looking down--
royal Autumn leaves danced in gold and red.
This must be where my...

Premium Member I Wandered Lonely As a Twig
I wandered lonely as a twig
that fell into an endless stream.
I’d turn and sometimes make a zig
or bob along in a bad dream.
No longer on a branch was I
to gaze steadfastly at blue sky.

Instead this stream was moving me
so rapidly – I knew not where.
Oh,...

I Wandered Lonely As a Wave
"I wandered lonely as a cloud"
                 William Wordsworth. 


I wandered lonely as a wave.
slowly, upon the ocean's tide.
O'er depths of a watery grave
alone, in current's wake I ride.
Always moving,...

Premium Member I Wandered Lonely As a Tramp
"I wandered lonely as a cloud"--- By William Wordsworth

I wandered lonely as a tramp, 
Far, far away from all human habitats
Away from all prying eyes
Following the bent
Of my vagrant inclination; 
Into Nature’s sylvan pockets
To places studded with trees
To the tranquil bosom of the woods
Onto the...

Premium Member I Wandered Lonely As a Beach
I wandered, lonely as a beach
that stretches miles along the shore, 
with its horizon, far from reach-
to hug the sky, forevermore.
From unseen starts, waves crash, retreat,
bathe pristine sand- no prints of feet.

So vast, the ocean, with huge waves
that rise and churn beneath the wind
as white...

Premium Member I Wandered Lonely As a Duckling
"I Wandered Lonely As A Cloud"
~by William Wordsworth~

I wandered lonely as a Duckling
Swimming in a big and lovely pond,
Trying to fit in and make a bond,
A group of golden fluffy ducklings.
Beside the lake, beneath the blue sky,
Playing together, not being shy.

Graceful as the wildflowers that...

Premium Member I Wandered Lonely As a Teardrop
"I wandered lonely as cloud."  William Wordsworth


I Wandered Lonely as a Teardrop 

I wandered lonely as a teardrop
In a sea of sand,
A tempest in one glistening drop,
Ruthless riptides of demands
Rush through a narrow neck of outlet
Turned upside down in midnight vignettes.

Cold specks of numb...

Premium Member I Wandered Lonely As An Orphan
I lived lonely, like an orphan,
their single, only child.
Envied others with siblings, often.
They must make life worthwhile!

I found my greatest joy in dreams
of what I wished to be,
a doctor, teacher or a queen,
imagination wild and free.

Like a bird within my mind
I’d see lands far away
and...

Premium Member I Wandered Lonely As a Geek
"I Wandered Lonely As A Cloud" by William Wordsworth 



I wandered lonely as a geek
Through silent woods and rustling leaves
Down the hill to the flowing creek 
Away from life's stress causing heaves
There I saw a white lovely swan
By magic there appeared a fawn


As the slow...

Premium Member I Wandered and I Wondered
I wandered and I wondered,
About all the pieces of my life
That came together in a puzzle,
Causing so much strife
The struggle, loss, pain and betrayal at hand
Feeling at times, sinking in deep quicksand
Those many times my heart broken like a mirror,
I could see the many flaws...

I Wandered Lonely As a Cloud
I wandered lonely as a cloud
Captive to the wind and season
Storms around me raged with fury 
I was becalmed without reason

Oh, the wind was fickle some days
And at times it would cease to blow
Then I would meander softly
Unpropelled and no place to go

'Twas the sea...
