Sensing Life Through Melodies Poem by RoseAnn V. Shawiak

Living through turmoil all through life, finding the
strength through faith in God.

Walking desert trails on hot arid days, finding ideas
and thoughts catching at my mind.

Holding onto, expanding and enhancing, then writing
them into poetry.

Seeing what I have been thinking, always amazing me,
because I never have any thoughts beforehand.

Rhythms pounding into intellect, interpreting them
into poetry daily, non-ending and incessantly, giving
great joy to this mere poet.

Sensing life through every melody, allowing emotions
and feelings to climb out of their shells, be seen
then experienced through poetry.
