Andrea Dietrich Poet Haiku

On Solid Ground - El

My feet are on solid ground,
for to the earth I am bound.
Though I hear river flowing
and see the full moon glowing -
a pie in star-studded sky -
I do not dream I may fly.
My feet are on solid ground.

Dalton Moss July 20, 2021 at 12:03 PM To one on my favorite poets: my wife won't let me buy that paraglider so I am stuck on terra firma as well. (And, John Watt's analysis is spot on.) Very nice work as usual!
