Bathed in Moonlight
Whispered conversations as the moonlights haze
Grazes along the fields and the mountains both alike
Stealing away with it vacant promises and cherished delight
In contrast fluid, bathing the world in beautiful strike
Like an artist to a canvas brush fluidly in hand
Moving swiftly ‘cross the surface sweeping billowing life
Imagination and shadows run wild artist insight
On both the glamour of stardom and unrelenting strife
Cast into a dreamer’s dream or a lover’s hapless fight
Strange things have always happened while bathed in moonlight
Yet circumstance returns to normal with the dawning of a new day
While the shadows of yesterday slowly fade from sight
Grazes along the fields and the mountains both alike
Stealing away with it vacant promises and cherished delight
In contrast fluid, bathing the world in beautiful strike
Like an artist to a canvas brush fluidly in hand
Moving swiftly ‘cross the surface sweeping billowing life
Imagination and shadows run wild artist insight
On both the glamour of stardom and unrelenting strife
Cast into a dreamer’s dream or a lover’s hapless fight
Strange things have always happened while bathed in moonlight
Yet circumstance returns to normal with the dawning of a new day
While the shadows of yesterday slowly fade from sight

I love the cyclical and elemental aspects and how the last line 'fades out' from the earlier drama of a moonlit driven experience.

Very evocative description of day's end, Misfit. I truly enjoyed the delicate imagery. It's as if the entire world whispers at day's end.
