When Life Left Me Poem by RoseAnn V. Shawiak

Life touching an interior spirituality, giving sustenance to
this mere poet's being, energizing my soul and spirit through
a bluened light of the Divine dwelling within me.

Gently, it leads me deeper into contemplation where I am alone
with God, finding His love enveloping me from the inside out,
spreading out to those who come into my life also.

All the wonder and beauty of heaven that has been promised in
the end, sits here within, because I've already been there be-
fore when life left me for moments in time.

Remembering it's total and intense peace filling me interiorly,
keeping me safe and protected, nothing to harm me, being healed
and joyous, until doctors brought me back to life on earth.
