RoseAnn V. Shawiak Poems

Life persuades each of us to stay pure and undefiled
while living our lives through the years.

Making the best of what we have and keep on going,
...

An energy lying still within, while listening to music
that's stirring an interior sadness, tears wanting to
flow, but not wanting to let them right now.
...

Hurrying faster, trying to outrun tears that are now
possessing intellect, music being intense.

Grasping heart, wringing its tears fully into writing
...

An impending mood of something being held captive within
this mind and heart right now, living in a capsule of pain,
nothing to be done about it at.
...

Nature decked out in a beautiful design and
pattern that flows like wind through clouds
changing attitudes as life hurries past.
...

Ridding the world of evil in order to get people to once
again care with compassion that will bring about change
in how people will treat one another.
...

Thinking, delving deeper into a pool of tears that
won't be ignored right now.

Tipping the scales in directions of an interior
...

Intense and profound musical rhythms opening like a
blossom of a blue rose, seeing sorrow and sadness of
a lifetime.
...

Warming life with a sadness deeply held interiorly, knowing
the facts, not disputing any of them, awaiting their fatal
demise as life comes gently to a close.
...

Sorrow still reaching into this mind's heart this morning,
not really wanting to face what lies ahead.

Knowing the heartfelt sorrow that will fall from people's
...
