Balance And Ingenuity Poem by RoseAnn V. Shawiak

Tapping and beating out rhythms incessantly, giving
my mind balance and ingenuity.

Prolonging the intensity of intellect, it's knowledge,
and wisdom through music.

Unforgiving, yet so pleasing, taking me away completely
into another land and dimension.

There being happy and contented, because innate talent
is loving this music.

Being first of all a musician, then a poet, translating
every note and tone in each exquisite measure into poetry.

Tirelessly and effortlessly, living in the exact moment
of every note being played.

Nothing like it anywhere else in life, splendid and en-
icing, giving my mind everything it needs to keep on
writing throughout every single song.
