Midnight stirs
Dazzled by the past
Brightest light
Without ground to stead
Balance nowhere to be found
Fluttering always
Tanka Tuesday words for this week are: Enchant and Fly, synonyms only! I opted for Shadorma (3/5/3/57/5 lines) and the words Dazzled and Fluttering.
Hope you enjoyed it, this little poem expresses my feeling these last days.

Oh, Elizabeth. It’s the changing of the seasons; you must be feeling. I feel your sadness in your poem. It’s that fall time of year. Your “like” button has disappeared. Is WP messing around again?

I try to be always in the present moment, do you know? The ‘here and now’! It isn’t easy, you are right, the change of seasons can be tough!
