Tripping Through Time Poem by RoseAnn V. Shawiak

Tripping through time, waking to a new day, hoping mourning
will not enter into it today, wanting to enjoy a time of
happiness without sorrow.

Wondering if it's too much to ask for, thinking of the past
with all it's grief and loss standing by the wayside, look-
ing forlorn, waiting to be recognized and felt once again.

Tears sprinkling with tenderness, spreading feelings across
mind and heart, being absorbed by intellect so they can all
be written into poetry.

Welcoming every thought, feeling, sensation with anticipation
while continuing to write from morning until night and beyond
the horizon.
