Andrea Dietrich Poet Tetractys

Notes About The Poem

Picnic Day

My
brother
swings with glee.
Dear family
looks on smilingly from our picnic spot.

Pleasure hums in playing children’s voices.
Cool splash of blue -
river run;
summer 
fun.

Brian Strand August 29, 2021 at 3:32 AM Strictly speaking Andrea,a tetractys in Ray's originsl conception was a conplete thought in one verse of his syllabic form..just saying Brian Strand August 29, 2021 at 2:29 PM Yes Andrea,I know one of the failings here on PS something you learn to live with in regard to your forms Andrea Dietrich August 29, 2021 at 9:28 AM also she asked for "double" one and there is no place to put a double one! Andrea Dietrich August 29, 2021 at 9:27 AM oh, I just did this how the sponsor seemed to want it. I went to see how see she did them on her own page. This was her format!!
