RoseAnn V. Shawiak Poems

Lateness and silence coming upon my mind, causing it to
stand still and ponder life and the way it continues to
benefit mankind.
...

Setting suns lazily resting on summer horizons,
beautifully stretching colorful hues across the sky.

Wonderful awe-inspiring nature, blessing all on earth
...

Existing sololy for the purpose of writing, letting everything
else fall by the wayside.

No longer having use of any of it in these, my last few days
...

Early morning rising, ready to be discharged from
the hospital, yet it may not happen for a while.

Knowing that my Granddaughter is expecting me,
...

Selectively honoring the essence of another, loving the
passion he sends to the universe through his living
poetry.
...

Looking closely into the future of children close to me
in a close-knit family, seeing the difficulties that are
awaiting each of them.
...

Thinking of you with this heart brought your picture to mind,
lovingly looking at you, seeing love coming back into me.

You are wonderful, understanding, and I plan on loving you
...

Aging into tomorrow, yet here my mind departs my being,
staying always young in place also.

Finding a certain beauty in the childhood of my youth,
...

Standing on edges of dreams, listening to heavenly rhythms
fold themselves into my mind with a sublime passion.

Wrapping may mind around every measure, allowing them to
...

If God loves you just as you are, who am I not to do
the same?

Loving and accepting, not wanting to change anything
...
