RoseAnn V. Shawiak Star Poems

The star of my life has disappeared from sight.
Gone beyond boundaries of this mortal life,
succumbed to heavenly departure.
Crying, wishing, feeling the emptiness left behind, wanting
...

In the darkness of this beautiful star-filled night, seeing
city lights being turned on, trying to compete with the
beauty of starlight twinkling above.
...

Picking my way through this lonesome night, being run
down by stress and turmoil, sitting beneath a brilliant
moonlight, trusting in the hope and promise of tomorrow.

Trampling down rhetoric of yesterday, wanting to explore new
thinking of today's scene, somber, yet happy, thinking of all
the friends I've made through the years.

Looking into pockets of evening stars,
hoping to find treasures not of this world.
Transparent options set in nighttime skies,
sending whatever star dust is found sparkling

Sweetened atmosphere full of energy and verve,
sitting closely in love, becoming the star in

Sending the rhythms right into the arms of

...

Keystones of mountainous purpose fall into my mind,
being oblivious to everyday opportunities.
Preferring to create my own, following a star,
perfectly in tune with my spirit of enlivening

To give an example by doing, not talking.
To shine without speaking.
To share my talents and abilities - gifts God has given me - silently in solitude.
