 The poem “Composed Upon Westminster Bridge”, Wordsworth expresses his feelings about the early morning beauty of the city of London. The poet watches the beauty of London city in the early morning standing on the Westminster Bridge on the River Thames. The city looks so beautiful that he cannot but says that only a man of a dull soul can pass it without seeing it. The domes, towers, ships, theatres look as if they are lying under the open sky. As viewed from the Westminster Bridge, everything in the city is glittering in the smokeless air. It seems like the river, Thames, is flowing in his ‘own sweet will’. The poet has never experienced such calmness before.


 ** The title clearly indicates the place of such a beautiful experience. So, the title is appropriate.
