Transcending Shadows Poem by RoseAnn V. Shawiak

Songs being sung in the night, transcending shadows
hanging around, as we sit back, not wanting to leave
just yet.

Music now sidling up to this mere poet and musician,
feeling so loved and cared for, musical rhythms are
all that can get past the heartache and sorrow.

Having a place in this life through the years since
being born, mind and intellect totally moving to the
tempos that will never let self down.

Only inspiring and lightening the load of sacrifices
that have been gone through, being made stronger in
spite of not wanting to.
