Poem-Daffodils

Hi everybody,this is my poem which I don't really like...
Daffodils

I wandered lonely as a cloud
That floats on high o'er vales and hills,
When all at once I saw a crowd,
A host, of golden daffodils;
Beside the lake, beneath the trees,
Fluttering and dancing in the breeze.

Continuous as the stars that shine
And twinkle on the milky way,
They stretched in never-ending line
Along the margin of a bay:
Ten thousand saw I at a glance,
Tossing their heads in sprightly dance.

The waves beside them danced, but they
Out-did the sparkling leaves in glee;
A poet could not be but gay,
In such a jocund company!
I gazed—and gazed—but little thought
What wealth the show to me had brought:

For oft, when on my couch I lie
In vacant or in pensive mood,
They flash upon that inward eye
Which is the bliss of solitude;
And then my heart with pleasure fills,
And dances with the daffodils.
Q1 There are many words from the figurative language,such as
Wandered lonely as a cloud(Line 1)
Floats(Line 2)
Dancing(Line 6)
Tossing(Line 12)
In sprightly dance(Line 12)
Outdid the sparkling leaves in glee(Line 14)
This poem uses personification for the words above.
