RoseAnn V. Shawiak Poems

Racing into nighttime waterfalls being reflected from within
fading memories held together, their beauty and wonder always
touching people throughout their lives.
...

Parades of humanity settling into harmonies and rounded up in
stanzas of our understanding, finding that knowledge is under-
lining and creating magnificent awe and wonder of time on earth.
...

Watching as pine trees reach upwards, wanting to climb craggy
mountains to their tops just to see the landscapes below them.

Curious as to what everything will look like from higher up,
...

Cruising down the highway alone and free, enjoying feelings
of liberty, filling this being and intellect tied with them,
sharing life with pen and paper.
...

Waves rising, falling, crashing and rolling across sandy shores
of eternity, searching for footprints that have long since dis-
appeared from sight.
...

Always talking to our Vets on facebook, learning about what's
going on in the world, using the information to make decisions
about who to vote for.
...

Swinging to rhythms here at Outlaws on the rooftop, playing instruments, having a great time that can't be had anywhere
else today.

Carefree holds the exclusive Cold Front Band here, taking
...

Instruments falling into tempos of reprieve in life
accentuating the pertinence of just Being in this
lively musical time.
...

Roughing it atop this roof, loving the scenery and landscapes
as we drink in measures of rhythms being played and sung to.

Giving us a surprise look at the past, cowboys and cowgirls
...

Melodies now hitting and touching this brain's pleasure
centers, not wanting this to be the last song, wanting
to not lose this musical rhythm at all.
