Pie In the Sky - Dedicated To Andrea Deitrich

Listen to poem:
guided streams  of bright lights few squeeze through a crystal tight sky 
colours this nature scene brand new a freshly baked pumpkin spiced pie

a random popsicle purple glaze
a toddler's finger painted blaze

the friendliest of all the river trees
dances calmly with a random breeze

the sun dives into his liquid bronze fate
as the wild plants wave back to placate 

daily harmony here come with ease 
while humans struggle just to appease

Your opening stanza is charming, a quick, smooth blending of words. "friendliest of all the river trees," and other has a child in mind, or am I wrong? You are wonderfully inventive. Love, daver

What a beautiful poem to dedicate to Andrea! It is filled with created imagery and symbolism. I like thinking of Andrea as "the friendliest of all the river trees" that "dances calmly with a random breeze." A favorite for me, Maurice. I'm sure this poem pleases Andrea, too. Love, Carolyn
