Andrea Dietrich Poet Verse

The Door To Wayra

I swoop down from sky
flying in on a light breeze
that whispers sweet promises.
Touching down on lush ground,
I open the door to Wayra.

Led to a forest,
I’m drifting with a river
that murmurs ancient secrets.
The door has led me home
among the birds of Paradise.
