Answers
Answer:
1) Answer: The poet was wandering lonely as a cloud over high vales and hills when all at once he saw a crowd of golden daffodils. here the poet compare himself as a cloud floating without any destination.
2) The poet compares himself to a cloud in the beginning of the poem because he is wandering about in a state of loneliness and detachment. Just like the clouds are moving overhead unattached to the scene below similarly the poet is walking all alone detached from the scenes of nature that surround him.
3) Daffodils are a hardy and easy perennial that grows in most regions of North America, except in the hottest, wettest areas, such as South Florida. Daffodils are a fall-planted bulb, so plant them in autumn and they will bloom in late winter or early spring.
4) According to the poet William Wordsworth, the daffodils appear to be fluttering and dancing in the breeze while tossing their heads. According to the poet, the Daffodils were fluttering and dancing merely in the sweet breeze.
5) The poet compares daffodils to the stars in the galaxy because they were stretched in straight line and appeared just like stars in the sky. The daffodils were golden in color, and their waving in the breeze seemed like the stars were shining and twinkling.
