Escape Within Thoughts Poem by RoseAnn V. Shawiak

Taking time to think things over, wondering what to
expect, as I climb interior mountains, trying to
escape within thoughts of imagination.

Looking across atmospheres, taking in everything I
see around me, with a deepened pleasure for innate
talent.

Beautiful measures of rhythms, taking me metronomely
into areas of space where I can be at peace and stay
away from the pain racing through me.

Wanting to stay here forever, not holding onto what-
ever life is troubling me with.

Taking pathways along gardens of roses, listening to
their aromas, smelling beautiful scents of their essence.
