RoseAnn V. Shawiak Poems

Singing quietly in moonlit showers, reminiscent of
yesterday's dances filled with emotional ties.
Final times of our happiness together, held in each
other's arms, looking deeply into one another's
...

Leaves lying jealously upon the ground,
looking up to heaven's stars where they
once thought they were hung to adorn
earth with beautiful colors.
...

Solemnly on wings of prayer,
daylight filters down through
clouds of misty haze.
...

Waving gently like seaweed in the ocean, willow trees
sway slowly in an afternoon breeze.

Silently lifting spirits with their peaceful, serene
...

Rolling, topsy-turvy, over the heated pavement,
looking for some coolness beneath a shady tree.

Crackling, banging it's head, just as it finds
...

Peering into picture windows upon a library wall,
seeing reflections of outdoors in colorful,
picturesque images.
...

As loneliness pours from my eyes, this heart is
being squeezed to death in sorrow.

Forgetting to fulfill life, death stalks slowly,
...

Tender life, gently growing, seeing the world close
around you, timidly reaching out to touch and explore
it's little tiny universe, a tender life is left
yearning to discover more.
...

Reflections in a mirror, portraying images through
windows once filled with broken life.

Now at a standstill, cracked and faded memories
...

Water wavering slightly at the gentle touch of the wind,
air all around filled with the fragrance of soon to come
rain.
...
