he sees a lots of golden daffodils which are dancing and fluttering in the breeze beside the lake and under the trees.

 further he says that the flowers look like twinkling stars on the milky way. when he see them he can see thousands

at a glance. it is very golden moment for the poet.

The waves of the lake dance beside the flowers but they are not as good as the flowers. for a moment the poet keeps thinking that what kind of pleasure do the flowers give him.
