RoseAnn V. Shawiak Poems

Sanctity of life is important, close to my spiritual heart,
wanting others to realize how attitudes and words they say
to another can hurt and even rip their souls.
...

Incessantly wondering and entering domains of personal
liberty where thoughts are entertained and nourished.

Beautiful and plentiful, never turning away from images
...

Waking from a deep sleep induced by medication is difficult
to realize unless it has happened to you personally, I feel.

Lifeless and dependent upon others to care for you when in
...

Nothing can reach me when I'm within a bluened atmosphere,
for there I'm in another dimension far from earthly ones.

Feeling and being sure that here is where I belong,
...

Closed minds are shut tightly against learning and educating
oneself, not allowing anything to enter, change or rearrange
thought patterns.
...

Ridicule comes in many forms, some silent, others overt,
but they all hurt another in one form or another.

Special care needs to be taken when dealing with others,
...

Searching through life for opportunities that enlighten
and illuminate knowledge and wisdom of yesterday.

Always taking it forward into other tomorrows with little
...

Tears in my eyes, glistening with my love as
they fall to their demise without you to catch
and preserve them in your precious heart.
...

Sorrow drenching me in tears, missing you completely,
being silent, not wanting to talk anymore, for you're
no longer here to tell me how much you love me anymore.
...

Lying back in your arms, letting your love fill me
completely, seeing your tender feelings for my life
through your heart-felt unconditional love.
...
