RoseAnn V. Shawiak Poems

Stillness abiding within me, standing on street corners,
awaiting the appearance of others, watching people as
they go about their business.
...

Staying hungry all the time, curiosity's appetite cannot
be quenched for I want to know everything in life, ex-
pressing questions in every facet of being.
...

Soothing nerves that have been frazzled by other people's
interference and questions at times, taking them in stride
but somehow they leave their effects behind.
...

Super sonic rhythms delving into my brain, enticing neurons
and synapses with pleasure and delight, accepting feelings
it gives all the time.
...

Construing many images in moments of time, staying focused
through musical rhymes that keep coming from an interior
waterfall.
...

Walking into rainbows of color, prisms shining in a
bluened light, giving effervescent details seen only
in certain angles.
...

Searching throughout life, getting older, learning
more, educating self through innate knowledge and
wisdom.
...

Bouncing happily down lanes of joy, interiorly feeling
good, waiting expectantly for every moment to start a
fire of love within my being.
...

It's so amazing that American seniors continue to laugh,
sing, dance, letting go of their ills and troubles in
the midst of entertainment, pure and simple.
...

Signature rhythms filling my head with their exploratory
sounds, taking me to heaven, loving avenues that music
takes me down.
