Moonbeam Kisses

Oh Moonbeam
As your diaphanous folds  envelop my  face

A singing wind heralds your arrival
trees swaying in time with her tempo
leaves the instruments of natures symphony
rustling in time with earths choir

My Grey negative retreat
turned into a slight blue heaven

Illuminating
the most trivial of novelties
coming alive
at rays first kiss
light unfettered by earths embrace
Magi in the night

Man in the moon
laughing gleefully at his delusion

My companion in the night
trusted friend I feel wanting at your void
Grey night overwhelms your hold
luster fades and darkness conquers
Your burnished blue brilliance

Moonlight
potent enchantment of radiance

Returning to embrace
and enlighten
euphoria a cold blue finger

Enliven a world
bereft of illumination
bringing magic
moonlights great performance

Oh Moonbeam
your delicate blue kiss warms a soul

Hi JayC

This one has promise and i can certainly feel how the moonlight and night breeze have entered into your soul. I felt though that the first verse was not quite evocative enough, mainly as a result of word choice (i didn't really see diaphenous and fibrils together for example and instruments and orchestra in the same line made it sound a little too technical. The hard stoccato sound of the word orchestra disturbs the flow rather...so maybe something softer like "symphony"). Anyway this is a suggestion of an alternative beginning: Oh Moonbeam As your diaphanous streams wash my face … A singing wind heralds your arrival Trees swaying in time with the tempo Leaves the instruments of nature's symphony Rustle in harmony with earth's choir … My grey negative retreat, Turned slight blue heaven … after this its all pretty good and i enjoyed it. Although i dont think you mean "alight" which is to land on something rather than to illuminate it. Hope your moon is shining down on you right now. Keith x
