Hi
We have very creative ways of describing sunlight. We talk about a “shaft of sunlight”, “a beam of sunlight”, “a drop of sunshine” What about moonlight? How does the moon shine? Brightly, fully, clearly, eerily. I can’t find any other descriptions. I look forward to your feedback.

A pool of moonlight? Moonbeams also work.
Moonlight can come in shafts and beams too. I think you are seeing a difference where there is none. Why not relax with a drop of moonshine? 
bright enough to read a newspaper.
So pool, beam and shaft of moonlight work. What about stream and shimmer? Stream doesn’t sound right but “shimmer of moonlight”? Possibly.
Actually I think stream of moonlight sounds OK too.
I’m being followed by a moon shadow.
There’s the Moonlight Sonata.
Not really what you’re looking for, but the Swedish language has a concept called “mångata” (“moon street” or “moon road”). It’s when the light from the moon is reflected on the surface of the water, creating a road-like pattern.
You should leap and hop on it, then. Only way to get rid of them dangerous buggers, always carrying people away.
It is well-known that the Moon is more important than the Sun. The moon gives us some light at night, but the sun only shines in the daytime.
“From the vast, invisible ocean of moonlight overhead fell, here and here, a slender, broken stream that seemed to plash against the intercepting branches and trickle to earth, forming small white pools among the clumps of laurel. But these leaks were few and served only to accentuate the blackness of his environment, which his imagination found it easy to people with all manner of unfamiliar shapes, menacing, uncanny, or merely grotesque."

Thanks everyone. Very much appreciated.
