describe moon glowing from behind the mountain

[alpacinou]

I wouldn't use "barely" there. You could use "just".

Honestly - I don't recommend trying to add two more things to that description. You're going to end up with a long, awkward sentence.

Alright then. I will need two sentences. How about this?

The half-moon was peeping through a chink in the clouds, just over the mountain peak. The scattered clouds danced gently around the star-studded sky.

Clouds don't dance around (unless there's a really strong wind). I might say "Wispy clouds dotted the star-studded sky". Well, I wouldn't say it but I think you might.

Good one.:-D But I will continue to love literary English, mushy and schmaltzy as it may sound.:-D

Thanks for your suggestion.
