Introduction
‘The Reverie of Poor Susan’ is a simple poem about a poor girl, Susan.
Wordsworth says that the idea of the poem was suggested to him by the “affecting” singing of birds in the streets of London. The purpose behind writing of this poem is to show the contrast between the life in the countryside and the life in the city. Wordsworth is able to successfully assert that the blessed sights and sounds in nature that are easily found and enjoyed in the countryside can only be discovered in the city only through imagination.
Poor Susan is an emigrant from the countryside. She passes daily by a spot where a thrush sings loudly at daylight. The thrush has been singing in the same fashion for three years. She is completely enchanted with the song of the bird. Her imagination is stirred, so stirred that she has a vision of a mountain, trees and a flowing river. She sees the green pastures where she used to walk and the cottage she lived in while she was still in the country.
