Topsy Turvy


Esta versión de una muñeca Topsy Turvy (la explicación está en el párrafo de abajo) la hice a partir de un patrón de la revista Country Marketplace. Representa las cuatro estaciones y su ropa también marca con un detalle la Primavera, el Verano, Otoño e Invierno. La primavera tiene escrito en su falda unas cuantas líneas del hermoso poema de William Wordsworth:


"I Wondered Lonely As A Cloud"

I wondered 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 the 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.
