RoseAnn V. Shawiak Poems

Everywhere I go, I miss you so deeply that my heart
and mind cannot let go.

Past memories shared in day and twilight hours mean
...

Finding my way into imagination and it's forests where
I feel at home and comfortable, nothing to interfere
with what I have to do each day.
...

Nothing can stay the same in life, babies are born,
people die, life is lived and lost daily.

Toiling and laboring throughout the years gives an
...

Shining down upon an empty life, threads now broken,
lying lifeless on the dirt-hard ground looking up,
satisfied no more with living.
...

Woke up this morning with a feeling of emptiness,
everything was in place, looking around you were
nowhere in sight.
...

Stringing together harmonies as they filter into my mind,
touching the essence of my being and loving the effects
they have upon intellect.
...

A rose blooming in the snow of winter, not feeling the
icy coldness somehow, looking fragrant and beautiful
under the winter sun.
...

Silently walking along pathways in nature, feeling solace
overtaking me as trees, plants and flowers touch my mind
with their essence.
...

Sitting in the midst of bikers at a bar-b-que, enjoying
their company immensely.

All around, nature is nurturing us in an Arizona sunshine,
...

Loneliness troubles a lonely soul,
left upon earth to rummage, forage
and never be found.
