Thoughts Of Life Poem by RoseAnn V. Shawiak

Nature standing regally just outside the window, clouds pass-
ing silently across a blue sky, winds blowing gently across
the face of the earth.

Chasing scents of flowers into the atmosphere where they cap-
ture senses with tantalizing aromas, bringing thoughts of life
closer into view.

Trees, branches bare of leaves for it's winter here in Phoenix,
Arizona, coolness touching my skin as I step out the door, re-
freshingly awakening my spirit.

As it takes away my breath in a cloud of steam, disappearing
quickly as I walk forward into the afternoon, ready to begin
again in this timid atmosphere of winter.

Exclaiming the scents and beauty of nature are perfectly able
to be made into poetry once again, musically being tantalized
while nature captures all senses in lines of prose.
