RoseAnn V. Shawiak Poems

Silencing fears with airs of music lilting in my ears
for an eternity on earth.
...

Searching for enlightenment inside caverns of being is
a curious endeavor as it fulfills many hours of bliss.
...

Combining elixirs of yesterday into mixtures of future omens,
hoping to encase moments of goodness on the way.
...

Silencing fate with whispers of prayer and faith,
hoping to alter destiny in time.

Forging ancient ties, bringing them forth into
...

Sorrow taking hold inside, squeezing, trying to make me
feel it's intensity as I fight totally to keep it at bay.

Signals sending tears to my heart, omens of teardrops
...

Charging into brigades of nighttime shadows full force,
breaking into song from melodies of the past.

Yearning for tomorrow to repeat itself in time, praying
...

Children singing, voices timid, some shying away from
microphones at times.

Energetic melodies rising, crescendoing very loudly
...

Tranquilizing moods of indecision, forging them with
steely integrity, taking strolls along rivers of
creative imagination.
...

Tangling thoughts across vast plains of arid deserts,
reassuring insightful meanings of necessary definitions
filled with attitude.
...

Silently, gently, walking through sorrow's doors,
tears held heavily in corners of eyes, waiting
to be touched and dried with a caring hand.
...
