Conciseness

Wanting to join their dance I swam amongst them and they parted in front of me as the Red Sea did for Moses.
I swam amongst the fish that parted before me
I swam into the fish
swimming through the fish
fish

The next night we anchored by Little Jost Van Dyke a small rocky uninhabited island where, after watching the earth spin into the dark, we saw a neon green shooting star fly across the empty stretch of space, like a nymph from the forest lost in the void.
We saw a green star fly across the sky.
The green star fell from the sky
a star fell
star

I was surrounded by a downpour of silver droplets unable to see anything else besides them.
A downpour of silver droplets blinded me.
The silver fish encompassed me
Fish encompassed me
Encompassed
