Journeying My Way Poem by RoseAnn V. Shawiak

Waking from a deep sleep, insisting on completing this
long journey my way, under conditions set by self alone.
No tethers binding me, no loose ends left to strangle me,
only a freedom spread throughout my being, expressing everything in between a feeling and an image.
Finalizing plans of a lifetime, doing what I think is
best on my shortened horizon, taking in whatever becomes
me in rhythms of poetical rhymes.
Meeting me in snares and pounding of dreams, melodies
stream into interior feelings of my being tonight.
