while lost in an illusion
a dream I counted on
erasing the confusion
just waiting for the dawn
*
the rising of the sun
cascading a new vision
as fantasy becomes
a needed intervention
*
both spring and fall bring change
new life through circumvention
a chance to rearrange
with detail to attention

Love the rhyme and rhythm of this, and how each stanza has its own mini-message. Linking the sleep and dreams and waking up themes with the seasons and change later on is cool too! “as fantasy becomes a needed intervention” is a great line. Nice😊
This is so beautiful and thought-provoking! Truly evocative work. 💗
Whoaaaa, this was soooo profound! Fantastic work!
Such glorious transformations. Not to pay attention is to commit grievous sin against them.
Nicely done!
This is fabulous. Well done.
