I wandered 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 stretched 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. I wandered lonely as a cloud- William Wordsworth. As time comes to pass I will always think of you and smile, an ethereal joy boasting the brightest golden aura. I will see you dancing on the breeze, blissfully happy and free and my heart will fill with 'joy' not sorrow as 'I recall emotion in tranquility ' Always yours Claire xx

I will never forget you my beautiful stripey friend ! With your infectious laugh, effortless style and the kindest of hearts - you were one of a kind. I will remember you with every golden sunrise, with every leaf that falls, with every cooling breeze that washes over me. You will remain in my heart forever. Love you always xxx
