Phrase catcher

I got invited to join a group on FB called 'phrase catchers', this is my first entry...


phrase catcher,
tell me how you would catch,
the diaphanous, tremulous, ethereal beauty
that sits winsome around the edges of words
and moves stealthy and sinuous
into the unsuspecting crevices of our mind,
where it weaves its mellifluous magic,
then enthralls the heady heart
into a daze of ecstatic enrapture,
and finally elevates the singing soul
into bedazzled, astonished silence...
