RoseAnn V. Shawiak Poems

Swinging to tunes of another era, enjoying their
rhythms, letting them flow, taking me to another
dimension far beyond earth's.
...

Searching for true love throughout the centuries,
people sing lyrics, write poems, paint beautiful
landscapes and portraits, depicting what they
think love might be.
...

Moments of isolation take over this mind, wanting nothing
in life but to be left alone.

Just writing in a deep contemplation, not seeing, hearing
...

Stepping back into the world, feet marching to rhythms
of measures playing staccatoly in my mind.

Straight and rapid, finding myself within the beauty
...

Appetite for curiosity is ever-growing, never lessening
in this lifetime.

Changing, altering attitudes throughout the years, but
...

Crippling the world are the muslims and isis,
torturing, beheading, raping and murdering
innocent people for no other reason than to
follow a pretend god of theirs named allah.
...

Rushing into and out of so many activities, trying
to keep busy, so afraid of idleness and being alone
with themselves.
...

Life revolves in an orbit of celestial sensations
totally unknown to us, the reasons why not now
being shown.
...

Daylight peeks into my room, timidly, shyly, wanting
me to wake up and enjoy the day it has prepared for
me to greet.
...

Wanting to have a good time, writing fun into the
equation while listening to music and playing it's
rhythms with my left hand.
...
