Ethereal Music.

 

Ethereal Music.

 

Shadowy movements of ethereal
music play nebulous games
with the moonlight\'s white fingers
across uncanny sky-scapes.

 

Tonight diaphanous curl of filmy
grey smoke whispers its
journey along water\'s dark mask
with swirls of limpidity.

 

Time abandoned tiffany dances 
mosaic of dewdrop-beauty 
on a blackening trout\'s fishy back
making rainbowed translucence.

 

Thru\' glassy mist night-jet hangs
gauze over sickle-shaped
glow netting half-lit luna lantern 
with pale flickered moon-face.

 

Clouds part and I stand entranced
as the rare yellow ghost
of a flimsy late rainbow skims past
leaving its spell for a moment.
