RoseAnn V. Shawiak Poems

Traveling slowly through time, watching life pass by,
being lost sometimes, falling into depths of misery,
yet an energy still is climbing within.
...

Crossing ridges of ecstasy, finding them challenging
and invigorating.

Softly picking an inner guitar, sounds taking me for-
...

Climbing to heights of inner mountains, hoping to
attain their beauty and majesty before the light
of day.
...

Hiding in the hollows of yesterday, wanting to be alone
with nature, finding the essence of it's total being.

Splendid and enticing, breathing into the night air with
...

Lasting sentiments flowing into streams of life,
following paths through forests of imagination.

Listening to sounds of nature as they fulfill
...

Drops of salted tears fill oceans with their sorrow,
emptying the loneliness left within when you were
taken by death.
...

Prisms scattering colors of the rainbow throughout
the room and across the dance floor.

People dancing and enjoying their time all together
...

Waves crashing upon sandy shores of interior jungles
filled with tremendously fierce wildlife.

Scouring the underbrush for messages coded in rhythms,
...

Scathing and wracking against rhythms of tomorrow,
living in tempos of another lifetime.

Searching for effervescent liveliness hidden within
...

Reverberations of sound touching me interiorly, giving
vibrations a turn at giving beauty to sensations.

Bubbles of emotion being filled with sanguine epistles
...
