Why on Earth Did you work for Wordsworth But not for me? I write proper poetry I saw some Daffodils & thought ‘So flippiin’ wot!" I traipsed up & down yer silly hills This poem’s all I got. Yer never gave me any inspiration Only blisters and perspiration. Arthur Chappell

@Plethos hopefully it appeals to readers not familiar with Wordsworth as well as his fans

We visited Wordsworth boyhood home in England. He came from the same town as Christian Fletcher. (I think I've got that right.)
