When I read that to celebrate International Cloud Day (March 23) the World Meteorological Society had updated its cloud atlas online,  my response was to recall William Wordsworth’s poem,  “I wandered lonely as a cloud. . .”  Then on Tuesday Neelima Shankardass gave us a wonderful portrait of this poet reviewing his life and work. She enhanced her presentation with visuals onscreen of the houses he lived in, including Dove Cottage, and views of The Lake District where he worked in the solitude which inspired his beautiful creations.
