Andrea Dietrich Poet Verse

Notes About The Poem

Beyond the Clouds

I want to break free -

from this confining shell that

my soul inhabits, 

warmed by the sun, cooled by winds

beyond      the clouds      and soaring


Revised for the One Nature Tanka - 
Inspired By My Short Poem Posted On Contest Page of Rick Parise
