A cinquain poem is a verse of five lines that do not rhyme. The cinquain poem was created by Adelaide Crapsey. |

Welcome y'all to tonight's class. Tex and myself will be discussing on the life of a famous poet,that lived in the 18th/19th century. . . He is Willams Wordworth |
Re: Poetry Classes For Beginners - NPC (Signup Thread) by EverestdeBliu(m): 9:16pm On Feb 01, 2015 |
Williams Wordsworth. Born April,7,1770,in Cockermouth, Cumberland,England. Attended Hawkshead Grammar School,where his love for poetry was firmly established,and it is believe that he made his first attempt on verse. After Hawkshead, Wordsworth studied at St. John College in Cambride and before his final semester,he set out on a walking tour of Europe,an experience that influenced both his poetry and political sensibilities. |
Re: Poetry Classes For Beginners - NPC (Signup Thread) by EverestdeBliu(m): 9:19pm On Feb 01, 2015 |
Wordsworth earliest poetry was published in 1793 in the collection 'An Evening Walk and Descriptive Sketches'. Meeting with Samuel Taylor Coleridge, they launched the Romantic age in English literature,with their joint publication, Lyrical Ballads-1798.Wordsworth was Britain's Poet Laureate from 1843,until his death in 1850. |

DAFFODILS by William Wordsworth. I wandered lonely as a cloud That floats on high o'er vales and hill, When all at once I saw crowd, A host,of golden Daffodils, Behind the lake,beneath the trees Fluttering and dancing in the breeze Continuous as the stars that shine, And Twinkle in the milk way, They stretched In never- ending line Along the margin of the bay: Ten thousand saw I at a glance, Tossing their heads in sprightly dance. The wage beside them danced; But they Out deed the sparkling waves in glee: A poet could not be gay ...To be continued 1 Like 1 Share |
