RoseAnn V. Shawiak Poems

In the darkness, seeing shadows lying asleep beneath mesquite
trees, quietly resting through the night, shadows lying along-
side rocks are casting themselves across the dirt like blankets
not needed because it's too hard.
...

Winners always stay on top because
they've learned from their mistakes.

When failing and never quitting,
...

Walking into nature, feeling it's essence permeating my being,
filling me spiritually, rising into beautiful landscapes, feel-
ing positive vibrations taking me into lively attitudes full
of energy.
...

Running through this life, eyes wide open, mind alert, awakened
by a spirituality filling me entirely with faith and hope,
solely loving the essence being found in all things natural.
...

Rocking to rhythms all taking me into other dimensions,
filling me with tantalizing pleasure and joy, totally
loving the beauty of this life.
...

Stirring thoughts, kindling an interior intellectual fire
of resistance against all the wrong and evil being done
in this world.
...

Satisfied with an inherent place in this world, finding
beauty and amazement in every corner, reaching deeply
into secret tunnels of every vision.
...

Visions dancing across my mind, feelings joining in along
with interior emotions, showing faith in self, taking
chances and meeting challenges head on.
...
