Unsettled

 Love is an unsettled sea
riding the waves of moon
tides

Dreams are an unsettled
reality waiting to awaken
in the autumn mist

Life in an unsettled world
changes day to day, season
to season

Will chaos ever settle down
in our uncertain times

    We are in a perpetual storm, you're right. I enjoyed your quadrille.

      I think there is a thing called organized chaos.

    I like the sense of urgency in those last lines about chaos settling down.

    Yes, I agree we live in an unsettled world. Really surprising how much change there has been in the past few years! Hoping to spin comfortably sometime soon as well.

    The second stanza really speaks to me. I think it is time to change the world with our dreams. We let everything else guide us instead. A beautiful and thought-provoking write.

    I apologize for this later response. Things have just been crazy with me lately finishing a book and taking care of my mom.
    I hope things settle down, too! :)
    Your stanzas could be separate poems.
