Question

Why does the poet compare himself to the clouds in the poem Daffodils. Plz tell it is urgent.

Answer 1

Answer:

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.

Answer 2

In the beginning of the poem, we can see that the poet says-

I wandered lonely as a cloud

That floats on high o'er vales and hills,

When all at once I saw a crowd,

A host, of golden daffodils;

In the poem daffodils written by William Wordsworth, the poet compares himself with the cloud because he is floating aimlessly as clouds do while he suddenly comes across a field of daffodils which had an enchanting effecting on him. Since, the clouds float aimlessly, so the poet compared himself with that of a lonely piece of cloud.

It is an example of simile where the poet compared himself with daffodils.
