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.
