Explanation:

The mentioned poems are about nature's love. They are celebrating power of nature and its beauty. William Wordsworth's best place to be in is nature. In all the three poems, he admires nature and is happy that he has memories to think about nature.

In the poem "The World Is Too Much with Us" he mentions that human has now overlooked nature and expresses grief.
