The speaker says that, wandering like a cloud floating above hills and valleys, he encountered a field of daffodils beside a lake. The dancing, fluttering flowers stretched endlessly along the shore, and though the waves of the lake danced beside the flowers, the daffodils outdid the water in glee. The speaker says that a poet could not help but be happy in such a joyful company of flowers. He says that he stared and stared, but did not realize what wealth the scene would bring him. For now, whenever he feels “vacant” or “pensive,” the memory flashes upon “that inward eye / That is the bliss of solitude,” and his heart fills with pleasure, “and dances with the daffodils.”

rituparnaraycha: The whole poem is a complete nostalgic thought with reflection of host of golden daffodils in poet's mind he had seen in the past. Its reminiscenes makes Wordsworth to be now gay even-though he is in a pensive mood ,(I wandered lonely as a cloud). something that suddenly flashes in his inward eyes are nothing but those of countless golden daffodils with eternal beauty that he had perceived along the bay while travelling with his sister Dorothy, were fluttering and dancing in the breeze.
