RoseAnn V. Shawiak Poems

Sounds of mourning filling the air, crying and weeping
over the loss of a loved one, prayers rising to heaven,
another candle has been snuffed out.
...

Reflections of life lie in the teardrops of mourning,
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.
...

Listening to the forte of an early morning concert,
enjoying the music being played by a band made up
of Veterans, police and a fireman.
...

Walking up the side of a mountain in my mind, even though
it's across the street from me, writing of it's effects
upon my soul as I listen to music.
...

Dreaming of you, wanting to hold you through the night,
only loving you throughout life, tenderly holding you
in my heart.
...

Living in the emptiness of sorrow, wanting your love only,
knowing that I will always have it, protecting me, loving
me unconditionally without any strings attached.
...

Feeling steady beats of the drummer touching the very
inside of my soul, loving the intensity and liveliness
jumping into my being.
...

Smiling inwardly, giving my all to you my love, nothing
else mattering but your heart in mine throughout eternity.

Love continually sprouting and blossoming between us with
...

Loving this night, being filled with your love completely,
touching my interior spirit, totally giving of yourself to
me and I to you.
...
