We always follow
the strongest and the fittest
but only within
our darkest secrets guide us
in the silence of our path

Tanka Tuesday – Midnight
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.
Between, #Haiga
Happy September to you!
The weather is getting cooler and the sunlight is gorgeous in the mornings and at the end of the day. September gives us a taste of the fall when Earth has a party of colours.

A photo prompt! Love it! Thanks Colleen for including it as one of the weekly prompts for your poetry challenge. This week prompt is this charming photo.
Here is my take!
Wishes and passion
Delivering my message
A piece of paper
To a faraway harbour
To a faraway moment
Glowing
My pitch-black coffee
Awakening my senses
Glowing soft flowers
The words for Colleen’s poetry challenge this week are dark and light, synonyms only! I’ve chosen pitch-black and glowing for my Haiku.
Hope you are having a great weekend!
Tanka Tuesday: Questions
The wind brushing my face and body
The minute before and after
Washing over my being
Escaping from my hands
Unanswered questions
Gifts of closure
Emptiness
Silence
Lone
Joining Colleen’s Tanka Tuesday: I’ve chosen Being and Questions for this Nonet.
Tanka Tuesday – Wings
A simple flapping
The pure essence of freedom
Showing us the path
Hello you!
I had a few weeks of vacation, I went to the beach and enjoy each moment of each. I was surprised when I got home and saw how my garden was blooming, flowers and butterflies everywhere. It’s nice to be back and to see that I don’t need to travel far to have beauty around me. But, of course, I could do with few weeks at the beach every couple of weeks 🙂
Joining Colleen’s Tanka Tuesday, today words are Nature and Clean, synonyms only, so I used Essence and Simple in a Haiga (Haiku + Photo).
