Entrancement.
Shadowy movements of ethereal
music play nebulous games
with the moonlight's white fingers
across uncanny skyscapes.
Tonight diaphanous curls of grey
filmy smoke trail whispered
journey along water's dark face
with swirls of masked limpidity.
Mist from mauve bed drapes glassy
gauze over sickle-shaped
glow netting luna's lit lantern
with more flimsy flicks of jet paint.
Caught in entrancement I gasp
as the rare yellow ghost
of night's fairy rainbow dances
bestowing its spell for a moment.

Brilliant!
(I gasp
at the majestic serenity, spell
bestowed
in your last stanza, dear Fay)
You honour my efforts and for that I humbly say thank you dear friend - - am so pleased you like Entrancement.
I gasp too seeing the burnt orange horizon from 30,000 plus feet as the sun bids adieu. Mind you, your last stanza caught me and entranced me in its poetic limpidity. Excellent write! There's so much to digest here. The description is brilliant!
So grateful Rod for your visit and review of the piece - -- the pleasure of writing on my favourite subject never seems to dim.
A fine write Fay.
