RoseAnn V. Shawiak Poems

This time with you has almost come to an end, I don't
want to leave you, but I must, moments with you have
been filled with joy, love and caring, couldn't ask
for anything more.
...

Slowly walking down midnight memories, letting them saturate
my being, feeling nostalgic, watching them spread across
acres of intellect.
...

Sitting at a bay, water, flowing by, rippling, making
sounds tempting me to come join them, whispering their
watery words as I listen, trying to interpret what they
want me to hear.
...

Gentle breezes blowing softly across the water, lights
shining across the bay, glistening, showing the way is
clear if having faith.
...

Waves as they come towards the wall I'm sitting on,
reflecting light so perfectly and gently, a rolling
show of light perpetrated by nature and shown to
this mere poet.
...

Spirits of this night are all congregating around me,
dancing upon the waves, joyously singing this watery
magic to me.
...

Father and son standing close by, talking to one another
with love, a beautiful way to portray their relationship
to one another.
...

Water lapping at my mind, touching rhythms of nature while
flowing just below me on the wall, blue lights traveling
across the water in the distance.
...

Listening to the chugging of the boat we are on, going
through the backwaters of Kerala, an occasional fish
jumping out of the water.
...

Everywhere we've gone here in India we've created memories
of a lifetime, never to be erased as long as we are alive
and breathing.
...
