William Wordsworth’s The Daffodils compared to Miracle on St Davids Da

William Wordsworths The Daffodils compared to Gillian Clarkes Miracle on St Davids twenty-four hour periodIn this essay I will attempt to compare two very(prenominal) contrasting poems,William Wordsworths The Daffodils which was written in pre 1900sand Gillian Clarkes Miracle on St Davids Day, written in the 20thcentury. Strangely enough Gillian Clarkes Miracle on St Davids daywas actually inspired by The Daffodils. In 1804 William Wordsworthwrote a chef-doeuvre, two years after his experience with thedaffodils, while the poem Miracle on St. Davids Day was written byGillian Clarke around 1980, one coke and seventy-six years later. Wordsworth was born on 7 April 1770 in Cockermouth, Cumberland, and raised around the mountains of Cumberland around the River Derwent. It was here that he would have been in comminuted communication withnature and this was probably the inspiration for most of his poems.Gillian Clarke was born in Wales in 1937. Her parents spoke onlyWelsh but she learn ed to blab out English as well as Welsh and currentlylives in Tallgarreg, Wales, where she breeds sheep with her architecthusband, daughter and two sons.The poems have many differences and similarities. I excogitate to writeabout some of them in this essay. The poems are set in two differentplaces. The Daffodils was written when Wordsworth was out walkingon his own, in Gowbarrow Park, by the River Ullswater which wasobviously outside. Miracle on St. Davids Day was written in amental institution an indoor setting. This has an effect on the bureaueach poem is written. Both are written about the humanity mind, memoryand imagination, and I think that writing about these subjects wouldhave been preferably hard to do. Both poems ca... ...hem his spirit is immediately lifted, and hefeels gay. This conveys that the slew of the daffodils wasmagnificent, and this is why I adore this poem so much, I about feeljealous of Wordsworth for two reasons one for his being there to see the d affodils and also because he has an extremely talentedwriting ability eternally at his fingertips. Clarkes poem is non asgood as Wordsworths, although she does describe the event very well,and the poem is superbly written, but in my opinion, Wordsworth haswritten a better poem, one which is renowned the world over. I saythat I prefer Wordsworths poem as he writes about a more upliftingtheme, and this gives Wordsworth the edge. Clarkes poem is not asuplifting as Wordsworths. I think that he has apply the consummate(a)words to describe his perfect feelings, and that is how I describe hisperfect poem.
