The world is too much with us - William Wordsworth

I remember reading this poem in high school, it having a great effect on me. I like the fact that he calls it "the world" because I've always made a distinction between the "world" and the "earth." This poem is simialr to how I feel about people and their realtion to the world versus the earth. We are more obsessed with "getting and spending" than we are with "this sea that bares her bosom to the moon - it moves us not." Someone once told me that he thought my love for nature included a hatred for humanity and its creations. I don't believe that at all - but I must admit that I am wary of where we as a people are going to end up. Imagine how Wordsworth would react if he knew what the world is like today.
