Holding Onto Your Essence Poem by RoseAnn V. Shawiak

Reading, listening to music, oil painting and writing prose,
poetry and articles throughout the years, nothing able to stop
this creative process.

Even after being on life support and in a coma, remembering
not wanting to come back because peace in heave was totally
intense, didn't want to leave it at all.

Having been septic, doctor's did emergency surgery, saved
this poet's life through a miracle of God, only one person
in a thousand survives, this poet being the one.

Living life full, having an energy that never dissipates,
loving life, having a positive attitude, helping and in-
spiring others to live their lives totally and completely,
the main thing is to find your essence and hold onto it,
never letting it go.
