Thanks  for the link. I love that poem... it was one of the
centerpieces in a time  that really got me interested in poetry.


Chris, I would go so far as saying that anyone who doesn't love that poem  
doesn't know what poetry is.
 
Another of my Wordsworth essentials is "Composed Upon Westminister  Bridge." 
Lots of analogs for it in contemporary poetry. Standing above a  scene and 
taking it in, with the filter of poetic insight. Wordsworth's nice  outward turn 
at the end, "And all that mighty heart is lying still."
