Temporary Sadness Poem by RoseAnn V. Shawiak

Soaring ever higher, flying to outskirts of reality,
testing it's edges, walking along them, watching for
a break or gap to escape it's circumstantial
circumference.

Writing lighter, illuminating darkest of corners,
bringing elation to a heart of aging memories.

Holding tears apart from life, assuaging grief
and it's temporary sadness.

Touching my soul with gentle pleading, bringing
rhythms to my knees with special graces.
