Poem that connects to me and my EQ

"Daffodils" (1804)
I WANDER'D 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;

Beside the lake, beneath the trees,
Fluttering and dancing in the breeze.
Continuous as the stars that shine

And twinkle on the Milky Way,

They stretch'd in never-ending line

Along the margin of a bay:

Ten thousand saw I at a glance,
Tossing their heads in sprightly dance.
The waves beside them danced; but they

Out-did the sparkling waves in glee:

A poet could not but be gay,

In such a jocund company:

I gazed -- and gazed -- but little thought
What wealth the show to me had brought:
For oft, when on my couch I lie

In vacant or in pensive mood,

They flash upon that inward eye

Which is the bliss of solitude;

And then my heart with pleasure fills,
And dances with the daffodils.

By William Wordsworth (1770-1850).

My EQ: What personal qualities help of hinder a person's growth?

            This poem I believe connects to my EQ in multiple ways. Not only is it a lovely sounding poem, but there are many meaningful metaphors that allow the reader to go deeper and deeper into the poem to find many personal connections. First of all, the beginning line "I wander'd lonely as a cloud/that floats on high o'er vales and hills" shows Wordsworth's beginning state of loneliness and tranquil solitude. He then goes on to find happiness in a very small things: daffodils. This shows that his positive, open attitude helped him find happiness and let him grow as a person. I can imagine many others who wouldn't even take a second look at this daffodil field, but his personality lets him take great pleasure in small things. That is how his personal qualities help his growth as a person. Personally I can connect to this peom too. It connects to every moment in life I've ever had and will ever have. It shows how a positive attitude can make all the difference and help me grow as a person, despite my situation.
