RoseAnn V. Shawiak Poems

Walking along paths of yesterday's life, holding onto feelings
of what used to be, untold memories being reflected in all di-
rections, at times being airborne.
...

Living in a world of fake people intent on doing things their
way, offending and being mean to others, what's wrong with so
many people these days?
...

Interiorly feeling saddened by the way others are treated,
harassing and bullying, not understanding the big deal of
how attitudes and values have changed in nursing.
...

Stranded in the deficiency of others trying to control what
they have no rights over, ignoring people's feelings, running
roughshod over them, causing a reluctance to come back again.
...

Asking for no favors at all, just wanting to be treated
humanely and not like trash as what's happened to many
people in this world.
...

Life is not a bowl of cherries as most of us have found through-
out the years, finding it's mostly the pits and difficulties of
dealing with other people and their ideas.
...

Touching hearts with wonder and cheer, finding they are in
need of love and caring the same as the rest of us.

Just because they're homeless, destitute and poor, doesn't
...

Waltzing through this mind and intellect, relaxing completely
as life evolves, not touching an inner atmosphere at this
moment.
...

Watching details of life as they surround intellect with purpose
and meaning, achieving benefits of glacial definition in moments
of intense contemplation.
...

An interior awareness of life spiritually taking self into
another dimension far from this life, beyond earthly shores
where many feelings and emotions fall by the wayside.
