RoseAnn V. Shawiak Poems

Faces all around me, people smiling, laughing, talking,
inspiring thoughts and ideas I can place in poetry,
gathering data, pleasure and happiness through others.

shining with the love that was given all through life-
times of togetherness.
...

Waking up in depths of emptiness, seeing nothing no matter
where my eyes look, sky emptied of clouds, sun and moon,
ground having no flowers, trees or butterflies flying.
...

Sun has set some time ago, so now I lay me down
to sleep, dreaming dreams of you my love.

throughout the night.

Oh baby, you make me crazy, I want to love
...

Sadness penetrating my mind, remembering all the loss in
life, taking me back into those moments of grief, empti-
ness and loneliness.
...

Inner beauty of my spirit is filled with love, caring and
compassion for others, as I fill the emptiness hiding with-
in me.
...

Looking interiorly, seeing doors surrounding me, curious,
I open each of them, experiencing an intense electric wis-
dom as their essence fills me with knowledge of life.
