Summeries For Class 9th
1. Daffodils
William wordsworth’s passion for nature is well known. That’s way he is called the poet of nature. He is worshipper and ardent lover of nature. It was a creed for him. To him, nature is a teacher and preacher. When we go through his poem “ Daffodils” we come to know that he has presented before us the healthy, ennobling, purifying and enduring impact of nature on human beings.
Once, when the poet was roaming the valleys and the hills happily. He was feeling free like the high floating cloud. All of a sudden, he saw a host of golden daffodils growing in the margin of a lake. They were in great numbers and were dancing vividly in the breeze. They looked continuous like the stars that twinkle in the Milky Way. The flowers were growing in an endless line along the edge of the lake. Their dance was more beautiful than that of the waves. The poet felt very happy in this joyful company. He continued gazing at scene. This scene became the permanent part of the memory of the poet. In solitude, whenever he recollected the scene, his soul, in extreme ecstasy began to dance like the fluttering daffodils.
2. Stopping By Woods On A Snowy Evening
Robert Frost was famous American poet. His poetry focused on the themes of nature in which he embedded the contemporary and philosophical issues of his time. We can clearly see his qualities in his poem stopping by woods on a snowy evening. This poem depicts the poet’s pure delight. He enjoys the beauty of snow-wrapped woods when he stops near a small area of woodland. Perhaps the poet knows the owner of the forest who lives in a nearby village. However he is satisfied that the owner does not see him watching his woodlands. The horse of the poet wonders why they have stopped at a barren place. It asks question by jingling its bridle a bit. It seems as if it is asking its rider whether they have done something wrong. The poet could hear the slight sound of soft wind and snow falling there.

    The speaker seems to search for solitude, as he rides through the woods in search of solitude he realizes his obligations to the things in his life. The speaker thinks of the man who owns the land and that “His house is in the village though” (2). This line highlights that Frost acknowledges that he knows the man who owns the place where he goes to escape. Frost has a sense of acceptance that the solitude he crafted for himself isn’t real. As much as Frost seeks escape he knows that it is illogical and his “horse must think it queer” that he has left society (5). The “horse” in this poem represents the speaker’s sensibilities, the speaker rides into the woods, yet his horse questions what he is doing. The horse questions stopping “without a farmhouse near” the horse is personified by the word “farmhouse” instead of a barn or stable. The horse, being part of the speaker knows it belongs inside and not in the woods. The speaker’s”horse” or in a literal sense his conscience, creates an internal struggle between the speaker’s want for solitude and his involvement in society. As much as the speaker wants to fulfill his self-prescribed solitude he knows that he has “promises to keep” (14). The speaker finds himself conflicted but ends up knowing that his allegiances lie with the world and other…

    The reason Wordsworth wrote this poem was to express the beauty of all nature and how we take its beauty for granted. He is wishing to convey that we should acknowledge nature because we are nature and nature is in all of use. Also that we should admire its beauty before the image is gone and it’s too late.…

    Robert Frost wrote many magnificent works of poetry within his lifetime. Two of his poems that were written within seven years of each other, “The Road Not Taken” and “Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening”, have such remarkable comparisons within each other. Frost plays on many aspects within each, while still keeping consistency of themes such as life, nature, and the emotions of the narrator and how they affect their lives and choices. With the undertone of life being a key component, one speaks of a choice to make and how it can affect the life from that moment forward, the other hints at a life lived and reflection.…

    William Wordsworth had a great love for the natural world. His poem “Lines Composed a Few Miles Above Tintern Abbey” was particularly inspired by the memories from childhood of visiting the Wye River. He is comparing his feelings as a youth with his adult emotions about the same beautiful area. Throughout this poem he references the spirit of nature as living. This makes me believe he feels close to God when he is revering a natural landscape. He then goes on to sum up his feelings by saying that nature is “The anchor of my purest thoughts, the nurse, the guide, the guardian of my heart, and soul, of all my moral being.” There is a suggestion that nature is his guardian angel, guiding him through his life. He feels nature keeps him moral and heals him. I hold a similar view of nature. When I am with my horses and other farm animal there is a strong connection with my God and a sense of freedom. Standing on top of a mountain covered with snow, enjoying the view of other mountains, there is always a feeling of euphoria. I agree with Wordsworth, nature is still the defining essence.…

    During his life, Robert Frost, the icon of American literature, wrote many poems that limned the picturesque American Landscape. His mostly explicated poems “Birches” and “Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening” reflect his young manhood in the rural New England. Both of these poems are seemingly straightforward but in reality, they deal with a higher level of complexity and philosophy. Despite the difference in style and message, “Birches” and “Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening” are loaded with vivid imagery and symbolism that metaphorically depict the return to the nature and childhood, the struggle between reality and imagination, and also freedom and captivation.…

    The speaker says that, wandering like a cloud floating above hills and valleys, he encountered a field of daffodils beside a lake. The dancing, fluttering flowers stretched endlessly along the shore, and though the waves of the lake danced beside the flowers, the daffodils outdid the water in glee. The speaker says that a poet could not help but be happy in such a joyful company of flowers. He says that he stared and stared, but did not realize what wealth the scene would bring him. For now, whenever he feels “vacant” or “pensive,” the memory flashes upon “that inward eye / That is the bliss of solitude,” and his heart fills with pleasure, “and dances with the daffodils.”…

    As the reader I feel , I am in a countryside of a cold country with lots of hills and valleys. When I walk and walk through the beams of sun rays and some time through the cloudy mist , along the bay of a lovely lake thousands and thousands of golden daffodils have blossomed beneath the trees. Far away from this lake or the stretch of daffodils there is a little house where Wordsworth is lying on a couch quiet and calm but touring about in his…
