RoseAnn V. Shawiak Poems

Stomping down hard, taking time to skip tradition and
begin to dance with an untamable balance hiding inside,
now coming out to play.
...

Military style, yet it's a country-western song,
its beat in a cadence that just keeps everyone
rolling along.
...

A new sound playing reasons of life in a steady
rhythm all through the night, grasping onto
lightening flashing.
...

A song of reality wanting to be alone, not being bothered
or taken for granted in this life, so taken by freedom
and liberty, never wanting anything less.
...

Practicing all night, writing and playing in the
midst of a melody as it stirs mind and intellect.

Winding up, getting ready, rhythms continuing to
...

Riding steady rhythms as they partake of a lively spirit
deep inside, holding onto dreams as they move into the
future.
...

Once in a while people need to reach out of their own
thoughts, and talk to others in order to get some in-
sight for themselves.
...

Fast moving rhythms, everyone letting loose, dancing to
their inner desires and passion, following up with a
tantalizing signature of an upwards stance.
...

Listening and watching as musicians trade places with
others, playing well, yet it just doesn't quite sound
the same.
...

Reaching for notes and tones, bordering always on
edges of night, completely loving how they take
mind and intellect away.
