RoseAnn V. Shawiak Poems

Mind opening upon awakening, senses alert, eager to begin
feeling thoughts and emotions, wanting to write it all in-
to words, lines and rhythms of poetry.
...

Solemn, quiet voices reigning in a spiritual sensation that
now is enveloping this poet, an uncanny feeling of comfort
and solace, thriving within this being.
...

Puzzles always coming together, sending pictures to a photo-
graphic memory, fields of innate landscapes and portraits al-
ways being seen in an open and trusted mind.
...

Thrilling to moments of music that strums to the beat of
this heart, giving feelings of energy and purpose to a
willing mind and intellect.
...

Living in spaces of spherical dimensions within, feeling a
freedom that captivates this mind, bringing it towards a
new enlightenment.
...

Family is all-important whether or not you get along, for your
roots are intertwined from the moment of conception, even
though very few people connect those almost invisible thoughts.
...

Rolling down lanes through a forest when younger, school
age to be exact, walking alone, down a mile long dirt road
to the bus stop.
...

Excitement filling this poet totally, thinking that today
is going to be the best day of my life, never wanting this
feeling to disappear.
...

Life is living freely in this poetical being, having learned
to use every sense, neuron, synapse within mind and intellect
since being born.
...

Thinking magically in lines of poetry, having fun while enter-
taining self interiorly, at times going steady for two or three
days in a row, not eating, or sleeping.
