RoseAnn V. Shawiak Poems

Loving the world, everything and everyone in it,
finding much pleasure in the living of it while
writing and listening to music every day.
...

Morning dew having evaporated, sun shining brightly
across Phoenix's desert lands, arid, hot, beautiful
weather and landscapes everywhere you look.
...

Watching, listening to several pool players playing
in front of me while I write, my usual place when
here at the center, sitting at a table alone.
...

Taking everything in stride, not feeling any different,
just being myself and writing.

Loving details being given to me from interior photo-
...

Life is surreal at times, like a painting that
I am looking at in the back of my mind.

Mirroring life in reflections of memories gives
...

Memories tempting me with fun and good times of
yesterday.

Loving to go back and watch myself as a child,
...

Recognizing patterns and designs as they are pulled
into my mind by intellect, showing me ways in which
to improve and develop them for future use.
...

What else can we do in life, but live it to the
fullest, not letting strife and suffering get
us down, even the worst scenarios are experienced
and gotten through eventually.
...

Sitting here pondering life and it's simple
complexities that we live through.

Emotions and feelings are not simple, they
...

Secure in the familiarity of our surroundings we
feel at home, peaceful, contented, looking within
for answers to questions that keep popping up.
