RoseAnn V. Shawiak Poems

Crawling through battlefields of this life, trying to
find ways of existence that depend on no one else,
standing strong, not leaving anyone behind, not letting
them down.
...

12: 30 a.m.
Stranded in feelings of hopelessness, being tossed about
like flotsam upon ocean waves, knowing not where to turn,
diving below, trying to lose myself in an ocean's turbulent
...

12: 49 a.m.
Believing in something that keeps me going through all
turmoil and suffering in life.
...

Rain now pouring down here in Phoenix, cleansing our
desert and replenishing i's nourishment, getting it
once again green and vibrant.
...

Wanting to be together for an eternity, cloudless skies
and all.

Being secreted in the beauty of life, effervescent hues,
...

Taking time to gather firearms into our homes,
prepared for the worst and planning to do our
best to eliminate the people who have been
destroying America from the inside out.
...

Living in a clearing of life, looking beyond it,
finding happiness surrounding me.

Taking everything in, silence folding over in
...

Succinctly coming into mind, thoughts crawling and
leaping in and out.

Finding an effervescent, wonderful rhythm entering
...

Wandering through a desert atmosphere grasping hold
of it's intellectuality as I ride horseback.

Wonder and awe taking me off into edges of another
...

Solitary and alone in depths of an interior
universe, feeling peace and solitude.

Wanting to always be a part of spirituality,
...
