Insatiable Appetite For Everything Poem by RoseAnn V. Shawiak

Working since very young, baby sitting when eleven years old
to buy food for my family, working through high school, three
jobs plus going to college at the very same time.

Having a photographic memory, receiving a scholarship to
A.S.U., learning quite a lot, totally loving chemistry for
the very first time ever.

Mixing chemicals totally appealed to me, doing and inter-
preting codes was another favorite of mine, maybe that's
why writing poetry incessantly and instantaneously fits.

Learning all instruments, being self-taught was and has
always been a plus, loving to entertain myself, doing
crosswords and all sorts of puzzles tickles intellect.

Keeping always aware and alert, taking everything to
task, totally curious wanting to know everything, needing
answers always, my mind has an insatiable appetite for it
all.
