RoseAnn V. Shawiak Poems

Thrilling to the beauty of romance as it's savory aroma
fills my heart, wondering where it will take me, going
further into fields of another time.
...

When younger, taking self off the beaten path, wanting
to know what lie ahead, not afraid to find out truths,
always turning and facing it head on.
...

Totally jazzed, for my first book of poetry has been
published, titled, 'The Zones Of Pleasure'.

Writing since I was ten years old, now all these years
...

Joyous and elated, writing poetry, being guided by rhythms
that constantly touch my heart and mind, bringing great
pleasure to my being.
...

Settling into surroundings of nature, finding peace and
serenity in it's quiet splendor, looking at everything,
trees, leaves, branches, flowers and grass.
...

Living life one moment at a time, finding joy, happiness,
sadness and sorrow, all making this earthly journey an
interesting one.
...

Listening to a song from years ago, called Good Night,
Irene, a favorite of my paternal Grandfather's, he
used to sing it to me every time I was at his house.
...

Skies bluer than my eyes, holding clouds floating above,
cavorting with air currents, having a great time playing
in my mind.
...

Rocking to music of Springsteen, tired of listening to
old-time music from when I was born, seniors here are
all older than I am.
...

Sliding in and out of imagination, keeping time interiorly
within an innate metronome, enjoying and applauding beauty
taking me far, far away.
