Answers
The poem "Daffodils" written by William Wordsworth shows the truth of the statement 'Poetry is the overflow of feelings arising from emotions recollected in tranquility' as he had seen the Daffodils swaying in the breeze and has had a majestic experience with them.
Even after many years, whenever he used to sit vacant or with a pensive or sad mood, he used to think about the Daffodils and be lost in the golden thoughts of them. He recollected his thoughts and those moments and imagined them before himself. The Daffodils which he had seen many years ago brought pleasure to him and he wrote such a nice poem on them. The feeling which he experienced that day were explained very smoothly by him through this poem.
And so we can say that "Poetry is the overflow of feelings arising from emotions recollected in tranquility."

Answer:
In the present poem ‘Daffodils’, Wordsworth has depicted a host of beautiful golden daffodil flowers that he came across in the valley of Scotland. The beauty of those flowers had left an everlasting impression upon his mind. In his later life, when he spent some lonely moments on his couch, he recollected those beautiful flowers and the memory of those daffodils used to fill his heart with pleasure. That is why the poet wrote this poem. This poem was not a deliberate and artificial attempt of the poet, but a spontaneous expression of his feelings, the joy the flowers had brought to his life. This originates from the ’emotion recollected in tranquility’. Thus the poem ‘Daffodils’ holds true to his own statement about what poetry should be.
