What makes this paragraph successful?

 

Shimmering light cascades over a dreamlike aquatic stage. A fountain bursts forward, catching the glow in a rainbow of colour. Twisting and spiraling, performers follow the rhythm of water, their movements graceful and beautiful. Silk ribbons ripple like waves, carrying acrobats into the sky before they dive into the glistening, clear pool. Joy spreads as performers float like raindrops, while swimmers carve poetic patterns into the surface. Every splash and motion swells with emotion, pulling the audience into a world where water defies gravity and becomes pure magic. Happily and gracefully, the performers take their bow. On the outside they looked calm and poised (but on the inside they must have been exhausted).
