Goodnight Under the Stars

outside, an incomprehensible moon hover
behind wisp fingers gracious poise across vast sky

boisterous songbird-swallows touch by the tease
opalescent wisp of light prance around them

muffle yawning lull wild succumb to slumber
savor fresh breath beneath the vault of heaven

This could also apply to faeries as well as stars "opalescent wisp of light prance around them" Great imagery, Eve
