RoseAnn V. Shawiak Poems

Strangely at ease, striving to keep calm
and serene over the years through writing
of poetry on moment of timeless space.
...

Tantalizing energy from rhythms filling my soul with
it's beauty and precision.
...

Sadness envelopes my mind as my heart flips into pools
of grief, awaiting reluctant tears.
...

Racing through feelings, feeling their tears
rip through my interior soul.
...

Reaching for moments as they spread themselves over periods of enigmatic, artistic pictures, gaining momentum in my mind.
Taunting with exercise of words appearing unbidden on inner screens of talent, creating verses for lasting appeal throughout the world.
...

Scattering life to it's ends, wanting for nothing as I write into eternity; all of life placed in words upon pages of books.
Noticing nature, listening soulfully as I walk down trails never before used, because I make them as I go along.
...

Loving strands itself on islands without anyone to hold or talk to.
Desolate years of disappointment and loneliness wreck havoc on relationships, tearing them asunder with jealousy, hatred, cheating.
Where once was love of silk, satin and lace, now stoops an aged pile of rags, ruminating in dumps of life's lost love.
...

Religiously listening with an interior awakening of God-given talents, placing moments in moving spaces of articulate innuendos.
Ebbing and rising with emotion, tides running, overflowing, drowning.
Touching above, clouds of hope, with an unending supply of architectural language.
...

Lonely days ahead, awakening past dreams with tearful memories, touching parts of my heart with their sorrow.
Listening to hear your voice, never being able to talk again like we used to.
Trembling with grief, yet I remember with joy the happiness and good times we've had together.
Focusing on all the good memories, feeling past hugs touch my soul with love, as I endure this life without you.
...

Signaling for attention, racing along roads towards imagination's avenues of mystery and mystic proportions.
Climbing aboard trains bound for poetical lyrics, grasping meanings and definitions of human nature as I continually write of thought and it's presence in my life.
