Measured Refrains Poem by RoseAnn V. Shawiak

Riding down trails of yesterday, clipping at a fast pace, yet noticing every detail along the way.
Choosing to ignore inner emotions, feeling numb as I ride into the sunset of my life, taking nothing with me, but my faith in God and the gifts of music, art, and writing.
Singeing my breath as I ride in burning facets of yesterday's memories.
Taking particles of visions and building them through imagination on the way to destiny's land.
Thinking daily, finding, seeking measured refrains from musical scores as I write them down indefinitely.
One day to be read by millions of people lying on deathbeds without hopes or dreams, lying back casually and fulfilling life's final dream of eternity.
Blessing every moment with titillating joy as darkness blooms on the other side.
