Breaking Away From The Mundane Poem by RoseAnn V. Shawiak

Cloudy day, waking up, getting ready for the day, today
having blood drawn, doctors trying to stem problems be-
fore they can get any worse.

Breaking away from the mundane, looking for the extra-
ordinary in this earthly world, living an existence that
gives so much pleasure in large amounts.

Even when going through suffering, hardship, abandonment
and loss; picking up a pen, writing poetry immediately
lifts this poet's spirits.

Taking everything and writing it out to the universe,
being freed of all of it, the best gift in this temporary
world today.
