Giving Intellect Exercise Poem by RoseAnn V. Shawiak

Enjoying rhythms as they dance within my mind joyously,
giving intellect the exercise it always desires.

Carrying the beauty of sunlight into melodies I'm now
listening to, filtering sorrow of life into tones and
measures of time.

As they continue to take me into depths of intellect,
there creating and developing ideas by which poetry
is grown and nourished.

Eventually blossoming into many gardens of poetical
beauty throughout this mere poet's life and then
gathering bouquets to place in musical compositions.
