Unformatted sample text from the term paper:
They are poems that are truly about nature, or the nature that the narrator observes, yet they are also different in how they approach or see nature as it relates
to them, as individuals and human beings. The following paper compares and contrasts the two poems. Wordsworth and Keats As mentioned, both poems are clearly about nature, or
some aspect of nature. In Wordsworths poem he envisions nature more abstractly than does Keats. He sees this sea of daffodils and is reminded of them in times when he
feels a "vacant or in pensive mood" (Wordsworth 20). In this one sees nature as something simple, yet also abstract, something that pleases him, for no apparent reason, and thus
gives his heart joy. There is apparently no need to analyze why he feels this way. In Yeats poem nature is very deep and very vivid. It is not
just one aspect of nature that Yeats examines, but many, as he reaches out, through the writing of the poem, to touch and feel the elements of nature. He speaks
of seasons such as "summer luxury" (Yeats 6). He looks at nature realistically in many ways for he is talking about the actions of the grasshopper, rather than simply the
beauty of the grasshopper and what that image of the grasshopper does for him, as a person. Clearly both poems address nature, and think about nature, in different ways. Wordsworth
simply takes nature as his own memory, a vision that means something to him. Yeats is simply experiencing and noting nature. In these respects one can say that Wordsworth looks
at nature symbolically, presenting him with joy in various contemplative or pensive times. Yeats merely sees and appreciates it for what it is, needing nothing from nature and the grasshopper.
