Loving Both Lives Poem by RoseAnn V. Shawiak

Joining my spirit in giving praise to God for letting
me be alive, free and enjoying this day, given to do
with whatever I want in this little life.

Surpassing the best of yesterday's times, continuing
to go at a reckless pace, introducing rhythms incessantly
into my essence.

Filling passion with the utmost lively compassion for
all things living and beyond death.

Loving both lives and addressing them both within my
writing.

Taking care to portray both in the special grace they
are entitled to while I'm here on this earth.

Living according to the commandments as best I can,
being only human, affecting interior solace with
purity and chance.
