Hopeful Experience Poem by RoseAnn V. Shawiak

Here in cacti land, enjoying this wonderful breeze, writing
to great music here at Buddy Stubbs, longing to be with my
friends in India.

Missing them all very much, talking every day, all want-
ing me to come and visit them, living here in Phoenix,
Arizona, but this mind is out in Kolkata, India.

An awesome and totally spiritual country where life does
actually have meaning, lifestyle is simple and filled
with joy and brilliant people.

Nothing quite like it any where else in the world, cannot
wait to get back there again, an experience I hope to have
over and over through the years.
