in the dead of night
seduced by a false prophet
time’s veil falls again

This is my ode to the horror of the November “fall back” time change. It messes up my sleep and it really does get dark by 4:30pm. ARGGG! Thanks to Yvette and Tanka Tuesday for the inspiration to vent.
unreliable
in the waning golden glow
hold fast or let go
surrender expectations
free in ambiguity

a secret laid bare
shimmering and breakable
splendor in the grass
icy mystery
moonlight reveals a glimmer
winter’s calling card

at the beginning
the day dawns on the big game
my eye on the prize
seasons come and go
without beginning or end
from a bird’s eye view

Thanks to SoCS and SenHai Saturday for the inspiration!
