RoseAnn V. Shawiak Poems

Riding along in a yellow cab, late for another
appointment because there were no cabs available
when I called forty-five minutes ago.
Trying to stay calm, listening to music and
...

Singing in rain storms of life, recalling days of
happiness sublime, reliving times nearly forgotten
in cells of a mind.
Opening doors to enlightened horizons, reading
...

Life travels the circumference
of our beings while alive.
Enjoying it's presence,
listening to wisdom residing within,
...

Knowing love closely doesn't happen for everyone, because there's
too many abusive, self-centered and selfish people in this world,
looking around, seeing that not many people are safe, loved or
cared for by boyfriends, girlfriends or spouses.
...

Loneliness of elderly who are left to get along the best
they can with no one's love to help them, save their own.

Desperately trying to fit in a place they once belonged,
...

Loneliness and abandonment filling this heart with your
loss, having to continue this life without you my dear
is a feat I do not feel I'm up to.
...

Walking slowly, hands on hips, trying to find some meaning,
then attempting to decipher it in ageless secret codes of
life.
...

Rejecting life brings a sadness of it's own,
tears flow steadily, no one can stem their
flow.
...

Traveling down a road of unending pathways,
subconsciously selecting ones least traveled
upon.
Preferring to see natural wonder and beauty,
...

Curiously wondering at trials of life's hidden
agenda's, thinking ahead without a vision.
Stepping on other's, scrunching them into another
existence so progress can deal it's heavy blows.
...
