"Little we see in Nature that is ours;
We have given our hearts away, a sordid boon!"
(Wordsworth3)
The World is Too Much With Us
By: William Wordsworth
This poem is spiritually connects to nature. "Little we see in Nature that is ours;"(Wordsworth, Line 3) this line means we do not own nature, nature has no owner it is abundant. Also this poem speaks of "This Sea that bares her bosom to the moon;"(Wordsworth, Line 5) which is a metaphor to the sea showing its breast to the moon. Bringing life to the ocean and its motion. This poem continues on to say "Gathered now like sleeping flowers"(Wordsworth, Line 7). Which means now nature is sleeping or calm.
Ode to the West Wind
"The sea-blooms and the oozy woods which wear
The sapless foliage of the ocean"
(Shelley39)
Kubla Khan
"Where blossom'd many an incense-bearing tree
And here were forests ancient as the hills
Enfolding sunny spots of greenery"
(Coleridge9)
