he root of the word inflexible is flex, which means that affixes are everything that is added to this root. Having this in mind, there are two affixes here: a prefix in- and a suffix -ible.
Both poems are similar because they are both about nature and are also presented in a sad
tone at first.
“I wandered lonely as a cloud” is a lyrical poem and it depicts Wordsworth’s response to nature’s beauty while the haiku by Basho represents the
imagery of spring day.
Their structural difference is that the haiku only has three
lines with 5, 7, 5 syllables each line while “I wander lonely as a cloud” has a
stanza with six lines in iambic tetrameter.
