RoseAnn V. Shawiak Poems

As you take pictures and videos of my newborn innocence,
do you think about the future that will be mine, will it
be one with freedom and liberty to be who I am with God-
given rights and the pursuit of happiness?
...

Listening to an interior spiritual feeling and intuition
emanating from within a bluened light of the Divine, soul
being energized and enlightened in the cavity of being.
...

Mirrors of rejection flow like a fast flowing river,
throwing life at the feet of fate, no longer able to
continue this life the way it has become.
...

Reaching through the fog of mistreatment and uncaring in
life, moving into an interior and isolated depth of being.

Leaving behind the world and it's deplorable ways of
...

Mind playing invisible games of chance, challenging and en-
ticing intellect with its intensity, preparing for a way of
an obsolete tenacity.
...

A stillness being created within depths of this soul,
silent and beautiful like a winter's night, falling
and growing into many feet of cold snow.
...

Music colluding with an artistic grace of solemnity and
beauty that's never-ending in a poetical atmosphere of
sheer joy.
...

Drums beating against a poetical background, taking this poet
gently and quietly into measures of timely rhythms and beyond
the scope of humanity.
...

Reaching into depths of spirituality, being touched by
the spirit of this soul and Divine mercy, feeling its
perfect love.
...

Feeling serenity as musical rhythms fall swiftly and aptly
into this poetical mind, emptying mind and intellect sur-
prisingly fast of all the stress and hardship coming along.
...
